Great news and would like some advice

Hi everyone

i posted about a week and a half ago about my dog smashing my 60l tank and having to put poor tyrant in a tub.

I will start with the news......i have a new tank on its way to be delivered today had to get a loan to buy it but i didnt want tyrant unhappy in a tub for too long

now to the advice......
My new tank is 150l. Its about 100cmLx40cmDx45cmH so i was thinking it would be a great time to add a friend for tyrant so the question is how many adutl axies can fit in the tank

I was thinking of getting 2 more but would it be big enough or is one more the best option?

I would appreciate your thoughts

2 more would be fine in a tank that size, as would one. I have 4 in a tank a little bigger than yours.
But have you considered the possibility of eggs and babies? Raising babies is more expensive than you might think!
Remember if you get more you'll have to house them separately if there is a significant size difference.

Thanks for replying so quick. I think my best bet is to get just one more and see how it goes. And then get a divider untill they are around the same size. Hah yes little baby lotls may be an issue but i think i could get round that by getting another adult male instead of getting a juvinile of unknown sex. I know of some where that sells adults so that may be the best option
