When I bought my tank, I'm positive it said it was 260litres (69g) but when I put in the measurements on aqadvisor, it says its 40 gallons.. I'm really confused, do I go by the measurements? It's 46 inches long, 14 inches depth & height. Seems a very silly mistake to make, but I'm concerned for one I'm overstocked, and two that in the past I've been using too much meds etc, even fertilisers.
 
39 us gallons, 151.8litres.. Wow I'm am idiot!

So I'm currently treating for ich, but once it's clear I need to sort my stock out. I'm 127% according to aqadvisor. Can anyone advise what's best to do?

Running an interpet pf3 HOB and a aqua manta EFX200 canister in the tank, flora base substrate, live plants, 2 long air stones.

My stock:

2 bristle nose plecos
2 zebra loaches
1 zodiac loach
5 corys

4 balloon mollies
6 mollies
2 platys
2 swordtails

6 black tetras
7 neon tetras
2 ember tetras

1 angelfish

Note: I do have a spare 65 litre tank that is not set up. I was wondering whether I could put some in that tank and move one filter over, the HOB until I have at least cured the ich, and then rethink what I'm going to do.

Can anyone advise? My water parameters always read 0/0/5 7.5

Thanks
