Ok we'll I have upgraded to a 25 gallon about a week ago and was wondering what new stock I could put into the tank. The current stocking is.

3 mollies

3 Cory catfish.

2 ramshorn snails

3 ghost shrimp.

I was thinking on getting some zebra danios or something similar. But they have to be NONagressive. Fish. And stay relatively small. Thanks
 
It's a aqua clear 300 and I don't know because I bought the tank and filter from the previous owner. Who also didn't know.
 
I think that you should add some more of each of what you have, so maybe 2-3 more of each. Then you can add another school of fish, or a pair of centerpiece fish maybe? What is your tap ph?
 
Last time I checked last month ( I ran out of test things) it was like 6 or 7 somewhere in that number.
 
Sorry bro, there isn't a aquaclear 300. Maybe you mean 30? Or a 70? The aquaclear 70 has a gph of 300.
 
the flow on that filter seems to be for up to a 70g tank. I went ahead and filled out an AqAdvisor with the information you provided. You didnt specify what kind of Corys you had, so I just put in Albinos.

AqAdvisor - Intelligent Freshwater Tropical Fish Aquarium Stocking Calculator and Aquarium Tank/Filter Advisor

Maybe consider adding some more Corys. My understanding is they do better in larger groups. Most people on here recommend at least 6.
Also, here's a link to a site I find helpful when researching fish. Lots of good info.
Aquarium Tropical Fish, Freshwater Fish for the Aquarium, Fish Information and Fish Pictures

Edit: I originally said that the filter had a flow of 70gph. What I SHOULD have said was that it was rated for up to a 70 gallon tank.
