would this be overstocked for a planted 38 gallon aquarium with black sand substrate and a aquaclear 70 filter?
this is ##150### had to say
36 x 12 x 19 inch (35.5gUS)
9 x Lemon Tetra (Hyphessobrycon pulchripinnis)
6 x Julii Cory (Corydoras julii)
5 x Flower Shrimp (Atyopsis moluccensis)
9 x Glowlight Tetra (Hemigrammus erythrozonus)
9 x Fire Tetra (Hyphessobrycon flammeus)
1 x Pearl Gourami (Trichogaster leerii)
Recommendations/Warnings/Suggestions/Notes:
Recommended temperature range: 77 - 80.6 F. [Display in Celsius]
Recommended pH range: 6 - 7.5.
Recommended hardness range: 5 - 15 dH.
You have plenty of aquarium filtration capacity.
Your aquarium filtration capacity for above selected species is 132%.
Recommended water change schedule: 28% per week.
Your aquarium stocking level is 95%.
is that true?
also if its overstocked i will reduce the numbers of the teras to 6 and the cories to 4?
PLEASE respond as any idea is a good one to me!!!!!
i know ##150### isnt that reliable but i use it as a general guidline
also this is my 2nd tank and i am currently running a 15 gallon with 7 zebra danios,7 cherry barbs and 1 mystery snail
also.. i would like at least 2 types of mid or top lv. schoolers(lemon tetra flame tetra glowlight tetra) with some cories(juli cories) for the bottom and a couple shrimp(flower shrimp) and 1 center piece(pearl gourami)
if this cannot go then i would like suggestions based around the pearl gourami because i hear the beautiful and timid
i will be doing 2 15% waterchanges each week
