thanks for looking
 
Total BS it says rehome the shrimp and snails :S they are the best thing for that tank.

oops i did not no that can you tell me why

Because it gives out wrong information.
 
All of those websites are kinda bullcrap, honestly. They give pretty bad information. And it's blocked because you're not allowed to advertise fish websites on here.
 
I just used this website and it told me I had a 3% filtration rate and my stocking was 1500% with a few species
 
IMHO I would never struts those websites, I would rather come on here and ask those things. And have multiple opinions and see what the best is instead of going on a calculator website like that
 
I've used it, its 'ok' as a rough guide, but thats all.

The reason its blocked on here is because its an 'unsafe' website well known for bugs and holes etc.
 
That's what I use it for,a very rough guide. Then I'll do "fine tuning" here.
 
I've used it, among other sites, as a rough guide as well, mainly for the compatibilities. I didn't know it was against the rules to mention it on this forum. Makes sense now, why it wouldn't allow me to copy/paste the website! :blush:

as you have found. many of these sites are worse than USELESS.
 
Furthermore why do you need a website to tell you your overstocked? :S
