So far i have 3 zebra loach and 2 oto's in my 30G tank. I next want to add a rainbow shark.
I was just thinking about what else i would like when i thought about some corys (sterba's corys), then i thought "i'll just work out a rough idea of how im doing so far, using the 1" of fish to every gallon".
I know this rule is very vague but i did it anyway. With the corys, i read somewhere that they should ideally be in groups of 6min, so i had this;
6corys = about 18" of fish
3 loach = 9"
Rainbow shark = 5"
2 oto's = 4"
total = 36" of fish in a 30 Gallon tank...im already over the limit!! 8O
This is not my final decision by any means, but i was just a bit suprised that that was all i could fit (using 1"fish/G). So far they are mostly all bottom dwellers too, havn't even moved up to mid yet!
Am i right in thinking i could have more than this really?
