Am I Overstocked

[gazeddy]

reading your guys stock list makes me think im massively over stocked now.

ive got 2 2ft tanks
one with
2 chocolate kuhlis
a common plec
1 saffron mollie
12 neon tetras
and 2 sailfin tetras

my other one is
a common plec
1 angel
one black mollie
one danio
3 neons
5 head and tail lights
2 albino convicts

the common plecs will get too big so will need to go eventually

apart from that i think its ok. apart from some of the fish like danios tetras and khulis need to be in larger groups ideally

the second tank i was given by my sister and need to let the dust settle really before i start moving round. but the neons are goin into the first tank. and the sailfin tetras are going into the other one.

how are the convicts doing?

i was under the impression they can be real terrors in a community tank

 

[tom_os]

ok, also the angel will probably need rehoming

they seem to be chasing each other more than anything else.

i was saying about the angel but i got beat to it

 

[gazeddy]

the angel will get tto big also unless there very tall

gravel bed taken into account its about 11" deep

 

[bae1994]

he will need rehoming eventually then

 

[CKutz]

yea angels need a tank at least 18" tall

 

[gazeddy]

not as bad as i thought.

 

[tom_os]

with a bit of rehoming and shuffling around i think your stockings fine

moved the sailfins down into my "new" tank will leave it a week or so before the neons move.
