Is my tank overstocked?

[connorlindeman]

I would say to maybe rehome one type of fish and increase the schools of the others, 20g highs are an absolute pain stocking wise.

Yeah i could do that. If I had researched more when I got my 20g I would have gotten a 30 g

It would be fine, maybe less than ideal, but cherry barbs are a small fish and

Yeah, it could be fine but your not the one in the tank

Did you know I almost got a 65 gallon tank! I wouldve had sooo many options

Seriously fish ( the only reliable source for aquarium sizing imo) says a 20 high is fine for tank dimensions

Well, if they are in a confined tank and it keeps getting tighter in there, a peaceful species could go a little coo coo and decide it wants to make some room... Ive heard it happening to some tanks before

that's not good.

Yep! How big of water changes are you doing each week? With good maintenance you should be fine to increase all 3 schools

This opens up a WHOLE NEW WOOOORLD... Would I be able to do red eye tetras with my 3 peacock gudgeons in a 20H?

I do 50 percent at least weekly, so that's what I would recommend
