How many koi can be in a 55 gallon tank?

“2-4 , 6 inch koi a 55 gallon tank” – A 55 gallon tank is most likely to small for 4 koi, although you may be able to get away with 2 small ones (3-4″ max).

Also question is, how many fish should you put in a 55 gallon tank?

Bottom Line The one-inch-per-gallon rule still applies, so be sure that you do not exceed 55 inches of fish in a 55gallon tank. This roughly equates to four or five bottom-dwelling fish along with a couple algae eaters.

Beside above, how big of a tank does a koi fish need? Mature koi, the 36” long fish that we often see in koi ponds, need at least 50 gallons apiece. This means that 4 koi that large can only be kept in a 200 gallon tank, and that’s the minimum. If you want the fish to be healthy and able to grow, then a 12” koi should be kept in a 100 gallon tank.

Just so, how many koi can I put in a 60 gallon tank?

Not a good rule of thumb if you have a sixtygallon aquarium with two 30” Koi! Or in the pond world that translates to thirty-three 30” koi in a 1000-gallon pond.

What fish can I put in a 55 gallon tank?
