how many more fish can i add to my tank (tank specs are in signiture) i have live plants in there so i need some non-plant eating fish. and i also have a filter that will be able to handle a 300 Ltr tank loads more than i need
 
none 12 neons in a 12 gallon is already 12 inches of fish. Plus your cory 1 inch roughly and clown plecos get about 4 inches and aren't recommended for anything less then a 29 gallon. Then add in the tigers which are about 4-5 more inches So you are stocked. You have 21 inches or more in your tank.
 
If you want more fish then you should get a bigger tank :D . When I first start off with this hobby I thought i would be happy with a 10G but that didn't take long, a month after I bought a 33 G and even right now it's still not big enough for me.... :crazy:

It's really sad when you become like me and 100+ gallons isn't enough :X :whistle:

Yeah, you're pretty well stocked TropJunky ;)

You have to remember that Tropjunky's tank is 12.5 UK gallons, which is 15 US. Although it's not much, it is a little more room. I think when it's a small tank to keep the stock levels low. I think you can get away with more, the bigger the tank.

HTH
 
thanx guys but u havent considerd the filtration system i got. ur right i shouldn't put any more in but the tigger barbs look a bit lonely and i don't belive in the inch per gallon rule in terms of the water quality and the health but i do when it comes to the fact that they need space.
