i'd say thats good, if you have the space to house them

more of an issue is how big is the tank you are going to put 10 kribbs in?

how big ar they?

i think a pair is ok in about 30g but with 10 you would run into territory and aggressiom issues unless you had a BIG or seperate tank/s and when they breed................. there WILL be trouble!

Providing you have the space to keep them I'd definately go for it. I have a single krib and I'm looking to get a mate for it. Very nice fish. Mine is a wild caught one and I'd ideally like to get another wild caught one. Quite intelligent fish but be wary of what other fish you have as in groups they're apparently a wee bit more aggressive (so I've been told so don't take that as gospel) my single one cost £6.50 but he/she was about 3inches long when I first got him.

Sounds like a good deal to me mate Plus if you don't have the space you could try and sell them on for a decent profit.

Agreed.
I think there will be potential problems with this many Kribs in a tank.
You will need lots of rocks, bogwood and plants on the bottom of the tank to break things up and allow each pair to set up a territory.
