So I've been browsing the forum today and came to the conclusion that my goldfish tank may be overstocked? It is a 40 gallon with a 50-75gallon HOB fluval filter with 3 bubblers of varying bubble "intensity". I do partial changes every week, gravel vac, routine filter media changes and rinsing, and I check the levels all the time, and nothing has ever been abnormal. I have 2 calicos, 2 bubble eyes (black moors?) and 2 orandas. They have been together for quite some time now and have all been happy and healthy with no problems. They school around, play in the gravel, and they each have their own little spot to go to for "quiet time". By routine "standards" opinions on if my tank is overstocked, even if everything is normal and they are happy? (If it ever gets to the point where the levels are abnormal or they don't get along anymore I will split them up, fyi) I included a shot of my tank for reference.
