Question about housing for creos

[ShieldMantid1997]

I am getting ten creo nymphs, I have a twenty gallon so 30"x12.5"x11.3" (LxWxH), would it be ok with that much room to put the ten of them in it as long as I supply them with enough food so their cannibalistic factor doesn't kick in?

Ive kept 10 in a smaller container than that without cannibalism, you should be fine. Just make sure there is plenty of greenery, they love green. If they can blend except for hunting there shouldnt be any deaths. Just use common sense, if they start getting older and it starts to look like they are to close... they are! lol and you should start to split them up. Thats about it that i know of.
