Hmmmm Apparantly I'm Overstocked Now...

Hi all,

I know there are a LOT of random internet tools out there for calculating stocking levels etc. I was having a go at this:

##151###

Which I have never found before, its rather good!

It reckons my tank is currently stocked at 124% but luckily as most of my fish are still young/small I think I'm OK for now (with regular water changes etc.) - though I will (possibly) be looking at grabbing a second external filter after Christmas...

My stocking/aquarium is in my signature.

However, this seems a great tool, because it also recommends, temperature, numbers for each species, fltration capacity etc. etc.

Awesome!

I dont think your overstocked at all.
Rehome a couple plecs and you'll be fine.

Yes I'll let the 3 bristle noses grow on a bit to try and get a male and female, then will rehome the 'spare',

I didn't like the idea that I was at 49% filtration capacity for my fish though... but I'll keep an eye on it...

heres the link again, not sure what happened there!

the link

That link is filtered for a number of reasons, one of which the site having malware in the past.
