Hi ,can you keep the following,3 bronze corries ,3 albino[or more?],2 pitbull plecos,8 glowlight tetras,2 male dwarf gourami ,2 female dwarf gouramiand 4 shrimp?Thanks in advance.Just wondered is this the limit or can i increase corries and glowlight tetra,if so how many?

Maisy, I suggest that you use the 1cm of fish per 1 Litre of water guide, that way you can determine for yourself what is acceptable for someone in your situation in the future, as you gain more experience you'll get a feel for what is acceptable.

3 Bronze Cory's - 6Cm x 3 = 18Cm
3 Albino Cory's - 6Cm x 3 = 18Cm
8 Glow Light Tetra's - 4Cm x 8 = 32Cm
2 Pitbull Pleco's - 7cm x 2 = 14Cm
4 Dwarf Gourami's - 5cm x 4 = 20Cm
Total - 102Cm
Shrimp - negligible, you can have as many as you want.

They'll be fine.

I would say no. Other may say yes though. I think with two pitbulls they would create enough waste as it is. Would also icrease one breed of the corys. Even if it means taking back the other three.

i think it is ok but the gouramis might fight they can be aggresive

Thanks ,Standby setting ,that really helps,that`s my final list ,but i`ll keep a note of the 1cm per il of water guide for future.
Thanks also Gytas,just hope the ratio 2m to 2f work as i really love the dwarf gouramis,and don`t want to add an exra 2 females ,micko don`t understand your post,do you mean just keep 2 pitbull plecos on thie own??

 

[micko]

No, not at all. Sorry I didn't explain myself properly.

bronze and albino corys are fine as they are pretty much the same bar the colouration, they school together.

 

[Harlequins]

Bronze & albino corys are the same species,just colour variations,they will shoal & breed quite happily together
You may be better off losing one of the male gouramis to avoid aggression.

Not always, there are albino variates of both C.aneus and C.paleatus.

Never had problems mixing the two, they're very alike and will get on.

Not in my experience. But that's not to say others haven't got on together in other peoples tanks.
