How Many Fish

[westmidsgal]

hi everyone
110 Ltr tank with about 24 different fish in at the moment and 12 baby mollies
in their breeding box,
is this enough fish or do you think I have to many . sorry can't name them all
because I ain't got a clue, but would like some more

Asking how many fish is like asking how long is a piece of string, the answer is quite difficult.
You need to take into account a few things:
- Amount of fish
- Size of fish
- Type of fish
- Amount of plants
- Type of plants
- Amount of filtration
- Type of filtration
- How much you time you have
And finally:
- Size of tank

Once you can answer all of these questions we MAY be able to tell you if you're overstocked.

I would hazard a guess that you probably are.

omg ok will try by best lol.
1 pleco about 7inches long
2 gourami
2 penguin terra?
4 platties (1pregnant)
4 mollies
5 neons
4 unknown yet
2 Apple snails
12 baby mollies

one plastic plant due to snails eating the live one's
filter just says fluval 3plus on it
that's all I can help with as I brought the whole lot for 50quid about 4 months ago.
all fish seem happy and have had none die on me so must be doing something right


I spend all day here with them and tank size is 29 inches wide 18 inches depth and 22 inches
high

It'd be a good idea to post up a photo of the plec, in case it's one that you need to rehome, due to its potential size.

Without knowing the "unknown" fish, it's difficult, but I would say you are fully stocked, especially as you have fertile mollies and platies.

I'd also say you are fully stocked and definitely do not need anymore fish. And yes, maybe take a picture of the "uknown" fish for us? Or at least search up on google and copy that picture? I'm sure some of us on here are able to identify them if we have a clue on what they look like.

But please, do not get anymore fish. Your tank is heavily stocked. If you'd like more fish, buy another tank, cycle and add more fish! But of course, find fish that are suitable for that size of tank.
