Stocking Levels

How many guppies can i fit in 125l tank. I have 9 in there at the mo but want to add some more and have a guppy only tank. Thank you

Do you have both males and females? If so, there's no need to get more guppies, the ones you already have will fill the tank up for you eventually.

I have mainly guppies in a 128 l (along with 3 platies and a bristlenose) and I think a good amount for that size is 15-20, assuming the filtration and water changes are well taken care of. Do, however, keep in mind the fry that will appear and leave some room for them. If you have enough plants and other cover, the fry will survive with their parents.

I have all male guppies as i dont want any fry LOL. Also in there i have 4 corydoras and a King Tiger Plec

Ah, so you do have other fish in there. In that case I'd suggest around 15 guppies.
