I have been considering an algae eater for my 29 gallon tank, and most people agree that 3 ottos would be the best way to go. I want to run a stock list by everyone to see if this is too much for my tank.
3 ottos
6 bronze corys
7 leopard danios
1 south american bumblebee catfish(full grown at about 3.75" long and .30" or .40" width)
The tank is lightly planted with two Whisper 30 filters, a small Hagen 58gph powerhead, and an Elite 802 air pump. I do a 30% water change once a week.
I know this goes over the inch per gallon rule, but the Bumblecat and corys don't seem to pollute much, and I am told Ottos and the Leopard Danios are a small bio load as well.
Is this going to be over stocked? Would I be able to add anything later or am I at max capacity?
In case other info is needed, the tank has sand substrate and Malaysian driftwood. These are the water perimeters:
Temperature: 73 degrees
GH PPM: 160
KH PPM: 150
PH: 7.0
Thanks in advance for the help!
