So ive been in the hobby for a little over a year and ive taken a huge direction into diy.
We built a cabinet to house 2 20 long displays with a 20 long sump tank hidden in the bottom. Overflows are established with a 550 gph water pump back to the the top and everything goes down accordingly.
The tank im gonna stock is planted with seiryu rock and good soil (cant remember the name and im not home atm). Havent decided on plants but the system will be CO2 injected at the sump.
My idea includes about 11 dwarf neon rainbows, 1 pearl gourami, and maybe 10 cherry shrimp or color (clean up as well). Not going to introduce everything at once.
I am mainly just curious to see if the stocking is too much or there might be some unforeseeable issues i am unaware of.
Aqadvisor put me at 88% capacity with a stable community and good filtration (i set it to 80 gph knowing i have more but to be safe).
All feedback is appreciated, thank you for reading!
