For survival rates, buy more than 8. I would say 20-25 would do nicely. Don't buy fish, or at least fish that can't eat fry. Do not use a filter that could suck them up. Try a sponge filter. Have a lot of plants(java moss) and a lot of suspended food. Foods that stay in the water column are essential for their development and they will die without it. If possible, get an already pregnant female.
