Hi guys

So I have a 25litre fish tank. not sure how many gallons this is?

Any way I already have:

10 platys
7 mollies
About 10 neon tetras
And 2 guppies

I plan to get 2 plecos as well.

Once the plecos are in I wanted to get some more guppies maybe?

At least 5?

What do you guys think?
 
I wouldn't buy any more for that tank. 25 litres is quite small, too small for any plecs really, but especially the common plec which can become mahoosive.

I agree with har-2109
 
25 liters is only 6.6 gallons. You are massively overstocked as it is. I would recommend rehoming some fish or getting a way bigger tank.

The mollies at least need 20 gallon fish tanks, The neons need at least 10 gallon tank, The platies also need at least a 10 gallon, Same goes for the guppies.

Even the Dwarf variety of pleco would get too big for your tank.

Not trying to sound harsh,
Hope this helped.
 
I concur with Ty. Your tank is way overstocked already. You should be looking at rehoming most of those fish. Adding a single pleco to the tank, even if it had nothing else in it would be a bad idea. The tank is simply to small for most of the fish choices you have made.
