Currently I have::::

4 juvenile angels
2 bolivian rams
10 rummy nose
12 neon tetras
5 sterbai corys
5 oto cats
2 honey gouramis
3 platies
2 guppies

Am I fully stocked at that are what do people think?
I'm planning when the angels get bigger an if I get a pair to remove 2 of them...
Was wondering could i add more honey gouramis even if I had to remove the platies an guppies I have 2 yellowish gouramis an would like to get few of the other colours they come in...
What does everyone think????
 
Well you should, by a rule of thumb, be able to have around 190cm of fish in your tank. So if your fish are less than this when fully grown you should be able to get more.

I've just done some really rough calculations and I think you have or will have around 150cm of fish so you have around 40cm to play with.

You need to think about the Angels though. You might be ok in that size tank to keep two pairs but you'll be extremely lucky if you have 2 males and 2 females and they pair off nicely for you!

I think you might be able to get some more honey gouramis and why not think about increasing the shoal sizes of one of your other fishes?
 
Yeah don't think I would be that lucky to have 2 male an 2 female but would be happy enough if I got one pair an just rehomed the other 2...
Yeah was gonna up the amount of neons I have before my angels grow any bigger so hopefully they don't eat them cause they have grown with them....
Do you think I should remove the platies an guppies an add more honey gouramis they seem a lot more interesting than the platies an there colours show of more...
Is the 150cm you got for fully grown angels ??
 
I would personally take out the guppies now before the angels get bigger and decide they will probably kill them... platies.... meh.. they will hold their own if you like them...
 
You should still have space for another pair of Red Honey Gouramis and a few more tetras to up your shoals, so long as your filtration is adequate, you have the space...
 
I did but at the lower end of the scale. I assumed they'd get to 10cm but they can grow up to 15cm. So assume that 40cm of the 150 is for the Angels. If you're planning on keeping just two of them and they grow to their maximum size they'll take up 30cm so in reality you have 140cm of fish currently. 
 
I'm not a big guppy/platy fan these days to be honest. I'd re-home them now before there is any breeding and you can get something else like honey gouramis.
 
I have a all pond solution 2000ef external filter I think it is more than enough what you think??.
Yeah think I might take the guppies out they chase the platies an the new honey gouramis but don't seem to nip them are anything just swim after them...

Would maybe like 4 more honey gouramis an then up my neons to 20-25...
What use think?
