Overstocked 15 Gallon?

[xJennaNiccolex]

Hi,

I currently have a school of 6 White Cloud Mountain Minnows and 4 pygmy corries in my 20 gallon. I plan to add a Dwarf Gourami soon.
Today I was reading about Celestial Pearl Danios today and would love to add some of them too, but I wasn't sure they'd fit. I went on aqua advisor .com as I was told it's a good reference for stocking, and it says I would be fine adding a school of 5-6 Celestial Pearls to the tank. That seemed like a lot of fish to me, but would they be alright?



Here's the link to the page on ##151###.com, hopefully it works.

Your links didn't work because you're not allowed to link to other fish sites from this forum. But, I don't think you'd be overstocking. But I'd check to see what conditions the pearls favor, because the WCCMs and the cory you have prefer cooler temps.

I'd avoid the Dwarf Gourami unless you personally know the breeder. They have a tendency to die terrible deaths from Dwarf Gourami disease. I lost 6 of them to it. It's from overbreeding.

You should sort out your current stocking before adding any more fish. the minnows shouldnt be in there, their requirements are different and your cories should be in a larger group.
