To Harliguin or not to Harliguin,

[Mr Miagi]

Howdy howdy.

I wanna create a larger schoal effect in my aquarium with harliquins with a dozen more, or two dozen. Is it a good idea, i was thinkin i may get away with it, but then again...... My aquarium has really low watse production but its at a comfortable level now, should i or shouldnt i?

Any thoughts, all appreciated.

Tank specs:

A 3 ft aquarium approx. 130litres, Containing :

7 Glass Catfish
12 Harliguin Raspora
3 True Siamese flying foxes
5 Pearl gourami
1 Peacock Spiny Eel.
And 2 common plecs

not sure but i think you are close to your limit already

I wouldnt do it, i think you are at your limit.

As you probably know, those common plecs are going to get big quickly and put extra pressure on the filter.

i think you're way overstocked already to be honest, depending on whether you plan to move any of those fish in the future. you have 42" jsut from the glass cats.

And at least 24" from the plecos...
