Well, now that my tank has stabilized (almost) Restocking - Aquarium Advice

fishygurl · 06-06-2006, 10:04 PM

Well, some of you know that i have had a lot of troubles with my tank lately. Now i think everyone seems to be getting better. The last fish with internal parisites seems to be getting better (starting to eat) and the cory with fungus (my fault i went on a trip and go behind on PCW so his scrape got infected) should be better within a day or two. So now, I definately need to restock. For remaining fish see my sig. Its a 24 gallon tank by the way. I would like to add:

2-3 serpae tetras
3 cherry barbs
2 zebra danios
1 small pleco (prob bristle nose) to keep algae off the plants

I dont think that will be overstocked if i add them slowly. But im open to opinions.. Do you think theres room to add another bolivian ram? My guy seems a bit lonely...

Thanks in advance

Sure, I'd say you could put another bolivian in. I'd make sure you're overfiltering just a bit, you can never be too safe
