Hey everyone,
Im setting up a 128l tank ( 34ish gallons ) and was wondering if my planned stocking is okay or if there are some changes that should be made.
The tank is 80x40x40cm ( 31.5x15.75x15.75inch )
would keep the water temperature at 23C ( 73.4F )
water parameters:
6.6 -6.8 PH ( hard to really tell as the colors are pretty much the same, using API tests )
8 GH
4 KH ( using RO water so can up these values if u think its needed )
Planned stocking:
20x Danio Margaritatus
8x Corydoras Pygmaeus
6x Otocinclus Vittatus
2x Sewellia Lineolata
20x Neocaridina davidi 'Bloody Mary'
10x Caridina Multidentata
According to AQ advisor this would put me at a stocking of 75%.
I dont wanna stock to high as i will keep fry in the tank till they are big enough to sell off.
I read alot of conflicting information online about the hillstream loach when it comes to flow, tank size, group numbers and territorial behaviour.
Is my tank big enough for all these species?
Do some of these species need a bigger group?
Thanks in advance,
James
