Hey guys I just bought an 80 liter tank and was wondering what is a good amount of fish that I can put in it, and what kind of fish would go nicely? I want it to be a community tank. Thanks.
Snowfire said:As a general rule of thumb, a good stocking level is around 1" of fish (adult size) per 1g of water. 80l is roughly 20g so you're looking at 20" of fish. What type of fish would you like to keep? Have you thought about cycling the tank?
You could have live bearers if you can deal with masses of fry!!
Have a look at some fish profiles or take a trip to your lfs & see what catches your eye, make a list and then read up on them to make sure they'll all be ok together.

Ok so I went out today and got 2 dwarf gouramis and 2 plattys. So how many more fish do you reckon I can still put in, if any???
