Can anyone advise me on stocking levels? Everywhere I look says different things! I don't want to overstock obviously but would like to make the most of the tank.
I have a 190litre corner community tank currently home to -
6 neon tetras
2 rosy tetas
5 lampeyes
3 sterbai corydoras
2 pygmy corydoras
2 endlers
2 guppies
2 swordtails
2 blue rams
2 neon dwarf gouramis
2 red honey gouramis
I have an external filter for the tank that is meant for a tank size 200-400litres.
I was advised to use AqAdvisor - Intelligent Freshwater Tropical Fish Aquarium Stocking Calculator and Aquarium Tank/Filter Advisor but can't because it won't recognize that my tank is a corner one. Have also explored the community creator on Think Fish - The Tropical Fish Keeping Resource - Community Creator but that says my tank is only a 1/3rd full.
I mostly just want to make up the numbers but would like to put more in there if I could but obviously not at the risk of stressing the fish out.
Just wondered what everyone out there uses as a guide and do you go by fish size ect or take into consideration filter size? Any advice would be great! Thanks
