Fish stocking

[Spurs96]

Hi, quick question, is my tank overstocked?

54litre (14.2g) rectangular tank.

5 zebra danios
5 glowlight tetras
2 dwarf neon gouramis

Any help would be great. Thank you, Matt.

I would think your close to or at your max. You will become overstocked as they grow however in my opinion.

OK thanks, they seem quite happy. How much should they grow by? (heard DG only reach 2-3 inches and the tetras & danios about 1 inch).

Sounds about right except zebras can get a little bigger. More like 2 inches. I have only ever used them for cycling tanks so im not sure what would happen over 2 or 3 years.
