Okay so I finished my stocking today my tank is
55 gallon
Lightly planted
Drift wood
Fine substrate
My tank is turning out absolutely amazing so I figured since I had the extra money I would finish my fish stock, went to my lfs today bought 6 rainbows... 2 Boeseman rainbows, 2 irian Jaya (red irian) rainbows, 2 Lake wanam(emerald) rainbows already have 1 Turquoise in the tank, stocked my ornate tetras to 6, my lemon tetras to 6 and 1 calico BN and that's it so my tank has 20 fish total, aqadvisor is saying I need 5 of each species of rainbow which is false I called 10 very high reputable fish stores in the US ranging from Florida, to new york, to Ohio (aquarium adventure) to Michigan and more they all told me you do not need 5 of each cause they will school together... Is this correct??, also there's no way I'm 94% stocked with 20 fish, I'm not worried about the stick part even though it's incorrect as I know how to keep my tank pristine but is aqadvisor not accurate anymore (haven't used it in a very long time)
I did not add my clown loaches to the aqadvisor cause they are getting returned next week as my tanks only a 55 and I know they need 125+
My main concern is the rainbows do I actually need 5 of each of is aqadvisor incorrect.
Here's a video make sure you set the quality in YouTube to 720p 60fps or it will show in very low resolution and also pic of aqadvisor
