How Does This Sound With 96 Litre?

[lilacamy931]

Hello can I check stocking with you guys on the following for a 96 litre tank? It will have one filter 1200LPH with sand substrate and plenty live plants

5 Habrosus cories
5 panda cories
8 galaxy rasbora
5-10 normani lampeyes

Thanks for any help

looks good to me should be a stunning tank with that combination go for 10 lampeyes they are so tiny it will be fine

Sounds very good.

Thanks so much peeps, my only concern is the rasbora as there will be one filter and think they like quieter waters? If I have it running at the back of the tank should be fine?

 

[Wills]

If you get a spray bar or plant/decorate around the filter outlet to slow the flow into the tank they should be fine

get the 10 Lampeyes. Such an underestimated fish!

If I were you I would go with 10 Corydoras habrosus instead of 5
I would go for 15-20 Danio margaritatus
and 20 Aplocheilchthys normani

The numbers would make them feel more secure, you'll rarely see them in lower numbers, plus because they're so small the bioload is of no problem.

Will definately try to adpat the filter thanks for that

I have had normani lampeyes before but they got eaten in my community tank, this time will give them a safe haven.

Hi Truck, thanks for that, I used the aqadvisor which suggested my numbers above would give maximum capacity and filtration. I would be worried about weekly water changes not being enough on those above numbers (though if can get larger shoals in there that would be great)

I wouldn't trust AQ advisor personally, it needs a lot of work, the celestial danio gets to about 2 cm's for the time being 1-2cm per litre would be a good guide to use for these small fish, same with the lamp eye Killi's

Lovely thanks Truck I will start with numbers above and add to them at a sensible rate so not to crash the filter and just realised it isnt a 1200lph as may need to take a section off so believe this means it is less

Sounds good, i love the Galaxy Rasbora. They are lovely fish.

thanks james! Will be first time keeping them and these have been hand bred, so super excited

 

[james_fish]

Sounds good! I'd be excited too

Well was unsure what was happening with the galaxies and the man has just turned up with some babies for me. They still have growing to do but are super cute
