Good day everyone. New to aquariums. Family is pretty excited with our new critters. Stumbled across this app. Had great reviews, Thought I'd giver it a try.

I have a 20 gallon heated fresh water aquarium. The species living in this tank include the following:

1) 3 x guppies
2) 3 x danios
3) 3 x corydoras
4) 2 x Swordtails
5) 1 x Albino Bristlenose

Total: 12 fish in a 20 usg tank.

Question: Do I have this tank overstocked?
 
Nope, I would up the danios to 6, Cory's to 5-6, and make sure to get 3 male guppies or else you'll have a lot of baby's very quickly. There's also a website called AqAdvisor online you can check out for stocking, it's not great but its a sort of guideline

Thanks for the feedback. Guppies are indeed males, only. Will up the Danios and Cory's (as suggested). The Cory's are fun to watch.
