Hello,
I had a quick question on my proposed stocking for my 60 gallon freshwater. I recently found the website www.aqadvisor.com and was wondering if anyone else had used this or had any insight as to how accurate it is? I put in all the fish I want and it says my stocking level is 91% which is ok, but for filtration it says I'm going to be at 88%. I have the Penguin Biowheel 350 which is supposed to be for up to 70 gallons. We currently do 25% PWC a week but I just want to make sure that if this site is accurate that the filtration being kind of low will not hurt. I attached an image the site generated for me. We just want to make sure that we will have a good setup for our fish BEFORE buying them and don't put them in an overstocked or poorly filtrated tank. Any and all input is welcomed and appreciated!
Here is my current stocking:
-1 Oto
-1 Clown Loach (Not an option on the site; Only got it to take care of snails, after they are gone we will be re-selling him)
-2 Dwarf Gourami's
-2 Black Molly's (One had 8 babies, but we will be re-selling them after they grow; Not sure if we want a total of 2 or 3 in our tank yet)
-2 Glass Catfish
-3 Sunburst Platy's
-5 Cardinal Tetra's
