60l Hexagon Tank

[SchottayB]

In a 60L Hexagon fish tank ... say it was stocked with just guppys (for fish size matter) how many fish would you be able to stock befor being fully stocked?

Not my tank, but that is the tank i've got.



Cheers

Well currently I have 4 male guppy, 2 platy and 6 neon tetra ... this isn't over stocked is it?

And if I was to add Endlers, how many would be ok to add? (I wouldnt add no more than 4) so either 2 or 4, what's best?


Then I should be fully stocked?



Thanks

i think 4 endlers would be fine i think you could add a few corys aswell

erm, id say you'd be fine with that. oh and i know my mum wanted me to have kissing gouramis and knifefish and discus and alsorts in my 48ltr tank! she means well but really doesnt have a clue lol she also wont let me have a bigger tank as mine is already 'huge'

she should see some normal sized tanks lol mines tiny!

Hahah! My mum said that aswell... and she even asked at the pet store... they said "Yes! The betta fish will get on fine with the fish you currently have in the tank" ... and he didn't even know what I had in the tank!!

So she came back saying they said it's fine... ###### pet shops!
