I'm somewhat mad at the way people act when someone shows a tank with a large bio-load.
Yes its nice to help them and explain to them that they could possibly be overloaded. My issue is those that post: ARE YOUR KIDDING? IS THIS SOME KIND OF JOKE? ...It makes me mad when I see this...So they didn't know better explain a little and maybe they will change their tank's stock.
I would like everyone to know that the 1 inch per gallon rule is a bunch of bull and anyone who has looked a little deeper about stocking a tank knows this.
The main things I believe your stocking relies on is your filter, your water change level, and the type of fish.
I have a very healthy guppy tank that is about 12 gallons with near 50 fish in it. The tank has had at least this many guppies in it for about two years now with no major problems.
Please be kind when people post and try to help them not belittle them or ridicule them.
Please keep in mind that when you think something is overstocked it may very well be your opinion and yours only.
Oh yes...I'm not trying to yell at anyone...
I hope everyone has a great new year and the best of luck to all of you with your aquariums
