I currently have a 60 Gallon Tank, I would say Heavily Planted, 48" Wide, 24" High, 12" Deep.
Only fish at the moment are 3 Nerite Snails, 2 Garra rufas, 3 Asian Algae Eating Fish and 2 African Dwarf Frogs, I know its a messed up collection but its a long story lol.
My neighbor is moving across country and has 2 tanks with Fish, from his experience he's saying they will all fit comfortably in my Tank due to the different levels they all swim at and with the added plants, 2 x Aquafilter 70s and a 50% water changes per week it shouldn't be a problem.
List:
2 x Boesemani Rainbowfish
1 x Bristlenose Pleco
4 x Cory Catfish, (different variations but all smaller species)
1 x Twig Catfish
1 x Rainbow Shark
25 x Cardinal Tetras
2 x Scissor Tail Rasbora
4 x Blackline Rasbora
9 x Glass bloodfin tetras
9 x Candy cane tetras
4 x white skirt tetras
7 x Harlequin Rasbora
4 x Red Minor Serpae Tetra
So that is a total of 83 Different organisms in a 60 Gallon Tank Fishtank.
In theory, if they were to all get along, no chasing or nipping, would it be fine?
To me, the number just seems way too high, but I don't have any experience with tetras and I have seen large amounts of tetras in Tanks before.
Opinions?
