Stocking A 60l

[Jdubz]

ahh cool sooo...Red/Black phantom tetra- might get some for the 4footer
preacox- not too sure on
yoyo loach- look cool
glowlights- might move 6 from 4footer and get a coulpe more

yoyo loach would be too big for a 60l they need to be in groups of 3 to feel comfortable there are some smaller types of loach though liek kooli loach or queen loach i think

 

[Jdubz]

I have some kooi loach already and they are awsome!

how many do you in a 60l i think you could about 4-5 and they would thrive in that kind of group

4-5? you should have about 8 minimum, as they wont be seen if you have a small group.

they are low on the bio load so it wouldnt really matter

thats not true a minimum of 8 as long as you have more than 3 then they will be more lively i should know my uncle has 6 of these guys in his 150litre tank and they are out all the time

 

[Jdubz]

Mine are out quite alot but i can still see them in the ferns so its is still cool.

8 is best, as any less and you wont see anything of them they are very sociable fish, and are a shoaling fish, and saying that is not true doesnt reiterate your point. 3 is not enough IMO they will feel way more comfortable in a bigger group and you will see more of them.

i have to disagree my uncle has 6 and they are always out always first the top of the tank for flakes and everything 8 is a bit of and over estimate for minimum he had 4 before then and they were the exact same he just added 2 more due to his mate selling his tank so you are wrong in sayin 8 as a minimum IMO

i wouldnt say wrong, as im speaking from experience, and various internet sources. ask any body that keeps khulis them selves on here, more is always better and the fish will feel more secure

Isn't that a rule for most fish? more the happier?

put three jags in a tank and see what happens!!! depends on specie

as a guide

corydoras
characins
cyprinids

are all shoaling fish

 

[foley69]

with shoaling fish yes the minimum i would say for any shoaling fish is between 6-10
