Hey everyone its been a few weeks since my last post and in that time my tank has fully cycled in overall it took about 2 months, 2 weeks fishless cycling and the rest was with fish in and now my water has been giving me stable and consistant reading for about a week, Tank is now heavly planted with amazon swords, various cryps, various anubis, java moss, moss balls, elodea densa and hornwort, I am now using 2 filters a fluval 3 plus and a eheim aquaball 2212 and water is crystal clear apart from the bogwood leaching out tannis but i think it looks nice and the fish seem to like it, So the real question is can i fit all these fish into my 120 L tank.

So the fish i have at the moment are

5 Albino Corys
9 Guppies
3 Swordtails
1 Dwarf Gourami
7 Glowlight Tetra

And what i want to add is

1-2 Albino Corys
5 Glowlight tetra
10 Neon tetra

I relly want one nice centre piece fish but a nice community one

its always tough to find a nice big center piece fish in a peaceful community. an angelfish might work, but you'd probably have to buy it young and it could possibly have problems with the gourami. as for overstocking, im no expert, but aq advisor.com helps give a general idea.
