I have a 36 gallon bowfront freshwater aquarium with 4 Upside Down Catfish, 6 Zebra Danios, and 5 Golden Cloud Minnows. The tank is fully cycled, does not contain live plants, and has an Aqueon Quiet Flow 50 filter. Would adding 2 more Zebra Danios, and 2 or 3 more Golden Cloud Minnows overpopulate my tank? I know I could only add 2 at a time. Thanks in advance for any input :flowers:
 
To many is when water changes are not enough to keep your nitrates under 10 ppm in my opinion. Nitrate has to get above 80 to be harmful. It doesn't take long in an overstocked tank.
 
Thanks

Thanks to all who responded. I am going to get 2 fish tomorrow and if all stays good with my water, I will get 2 more in a week. I will keep a close eye on my water conditions. Thanks again! :grin:
