Hi guys
Was wondering if someone could give their opinion on the following stocking level. I have bought a Fluval Edge 57L (15G) but it's not set up yet. The cycling process is starting this weekend. I manged to find some Dr Tims One & Only Freshwater plus the Ammonium Chloride which I plan to use. Perhaps I'll start a thread about this in the cycling part as I couldn't find much about it on here.
Back to the main question, is this stocking level ok?
I plan to stock (once cycled) with:
* 6 Guppies (all males)
* 6 Endlers (again, all males)
* 3 Otocinclus
* 5 Amano Shrimp
Do I need to increase/decrease any of these numbers to be more realistic? I've obviously not purchased the fish yet so there's no problem with having to return any etc...
The tank will be planted and scaped with "grey mountain stone" that I purchased from a seller on eBay. The parameters of my standard tap water are:
pH 7.4
GH 7
KH 7
I have read that guppies like "hard" water so would my levels of 7 not be good enough?
Thank you in advance.
