Do these fish have an abnormally large bioload for their size? On AqAdvisor 6 of them, without any other fish, would constitute a 65% stocking level in a 36g bowfront tank with a MarineLand Penguin 200B filter (50 gallon). This just seems very high to me and was curious to hear anyone elses opinion. 6 cherry barbs, which to me seem almost identical in size and body, would only constitute a 39% stocking level on their own. Thank you for your help/opinion.
