Hey all,
So, I do believe my tank has cycled and I’d like to get some thoughts on how many extra fish I can safely add. Current stock is: 1 male betta, 7 neon tetras, 5 black neon tetras, 6 albino corydoras. I’d really like to add 2 bolivian rams (M+F). Would I also have space for a few more tetras? It’d be nice to have slightly bigger schools. Right now all fish, except the betta are juveniles.
The tank is currently planted with water wisteria, java fern, and annubias.
Is there anything I can do to increase capacity—like adding an air pump/bubbler (not too much for the bettas sake)?
I am familiar with the 1 inch per gallon rule, but am wondering if with more frequent water changes, I can add more? (say weekly or is this too much?)
