I was just playing around online today and decided to poke at one of those aquarium stocking level calculators and based on what it told me it said that I have about twice the stock that my filtration will support, I don't think that's the case but wanted to throw it out there to get feed back.
My tank is a 50g breeder with an Aquaclear 70. I do 25% water changes every 1-2 weeks.
Current stock:
6 white clouds
7 danios - Mix of zebra, pearl and gold
4 swordtails - 1 male and 3 female
3 Yoyo loaches
2 Weather Loaches
2 Bristlenose plecos - They actually bred a while back so I have 3 or 4 babies in there too that I'm working on finding homes for but they are still really small.
A healthy cherry/ghost shrimp population. Really no idea how many of those guys are in there but at any given time I can usually count 20ish.
I was considering adding in 4 or 5 siamese algae eaters if you all think the tank could support it. I try to keep the temp around 74 degrees because I have some cooler water fish in there. Most of the fish have been in there for a year or so now the white clouds are the newest addition. So what say you, have I gone too far?
