Will This Be Overstocked?

[modaz]

48"x20"x16" (300L)

plan to put in
3 clown loaches maybe 4
1 4.5" armoured cat
6 mixed cory
2 4.5 red lined torbedo barbs
2 male platy
4 male guppy

tank set up but no fish in as yet

No, you'll probably want more barbs to make a school, more cories or loaches to fill the bottom better and maybe some female livebearers.

i say that wouldnt be over stocked at all

everyone is about to come diving in here to tell u how big clown loaches grow though ill assume u know but brace yourself all the same!

oh no!!!!!!!! females they are staying in the bottom tank seen some lovely redlined barb near me so i could make a shoal of 5 cause thats all they have.
yeah the tank has been primarly set up for the clowns(only 3" at the moment and fully aware of adult size and growth rate) catfish and barbs

open to suggestions of different fish though

ive never been one for plecs...had one as a child and found it the most boring thing ever ive, at the moment got pygmy, albino an peppered cory in my other tanks but thinking of some other type for a change. never heard of queen arabesque so im off to google it
