Too Many Dwarfs Or Just Right?

I have 3 tanks well 4 but 5 gal does not count. I have one keyhole in a 36 gal with 5 rasboras 2 plecos ( 1 clown 1 BN). I just got a young Bolivian ram who in a 10 gal holding tank. I'm thinking of getting another Bolivian ram but I also want one more keyhole. So could I have 2 Bolivian rams and 2 keyholes in my 36 gal (thats 136L for my UK buddies).

So do you think that's fine or too much?
I'm cycling a 55 gal tank I'm going to get a blue acara for it. But I could always move fish to that tank if need be. I would rather keep the little guys in the 36 gal.

IMO that's a little on the heavy side... I'd go for one keyhole and 2 Bolivians.

Im going to agree, if it appears there is no territorial disputes or aggression once they are matured, you may try another keyhole, but IMO not really a large enough area for all 4.

That's what I was thinking but my ram stays at the bottom and my keyhole is always in the middle. So I thought maybe it would work. I can always move some to the big tank if it gets too crazy. I'm having a hard time finding another keyhole. It was like a one time chance getting the one I do have.

personally i think it would be fine providing enough cover and territory is available all generaly speaking peacful fish so i would worry to be honest i have a breeding pair of cockatoo's and a keyhole in a 15gal(for the time being) and no fighting at all so i wouldnt be put off just keep an eye on things for a few days but i cant see any problems occuring
