Just been given a 160 litre tank with fish in and it's looking a little bare and want to and more fish, but I'm new to look this fish keep stuff so don't no if I can or what I can put in.

1 fighting fish
4 mollys
2 swordtails
2 dwarf gourami
6 head tail tetra
6 glow lights tetra
5 neon tetra
4 golden algae eaters.

Would you rehome any of the fish? If you were to rehome the fighter and 2 algae eaters and maybe a dwarf gourami ( depending on sex) then I think you could.

The 4 algae eaters makes this tank overstocked, IMO. Plus at some point you'll most likely have a problem with their aggression. They say one CAE needs a minimum of 30g so 4 in your sized tank, IMO, is too many. If you could rehome 3 or all of them that will help in the long run.
