I have my breeding colony of 12-13 in a 30 gal breeder tank. It is loaded with rock, slate and wood. They spawn in there and I have had as many as 50+ assorted fry in the same tank with them at times.
I think providing tons of adequate hiding places is as important as tank size. However, a smaller well provisioned tank also requires adequate water changes and vacuuming.

What makes the common person uncommon is common sense.
