Crowded Hissers?

[mhranimals]

Hey! I have a 5.5 gallon aquarium with one male and four female hissing cockroaches. I was just given about ten young nymphs from Ovogram. Does this seem crowded as a setup? Thanks!

Maybe not right now, but if they reproduce you'll be pushing it a bit. I would invest in a plastic bin of some kind.

A 5.5 gallon could hold 50 adult hissers. They are very tolerant of crowding, but if you want to start a large colony you'd want a large bin.
