Adding Fish, How Often?

[Ajones__17]

I've had my juwel 180 set up for around 4 months now and have about 20 small fish in there.

What i wanna check is how often is it safe to add fish?

i add new ones every two weeks...
everything seems fine...

How many new ones?

What kind of fish?
Size etc?

all depends on size and bio load, i think its something like every 3-4 weeks but hen a gain. bacteria can double in like a few hours so i dunno

initially, like 3 months ago, i have 5 mollies and 6 platies.
a month after that i added 2 bronze corries..
2 weeks after, 1 betta...
2 weeks after, 2 pakistani loaches..
thinking of adding 3 glass catfishes today after a few weeks of searching...

EDIT: spelling..again..

could i suggest you get more glass catfish i just was talking to another member about them and he read their profile and it say to keep them in 6's. i kept mine in 6's when i had them and they were happy.

also another few cories would make them happier.
