shrimp and bioload .

[Di`Can10]

bioload to a tank ?

cause i am aimming for a population of bout 60 tetras , guppies , etc in my 2.5 by 1.5 ft tank excluding shrimps when it finally gets completed .

if add up the shrimps , the pop will hit nearly 100 which i think is too much , if it's purely fishes .. but what if it's the about combo of fishes + shrimps .

Thanks for any info

when the tetras grow bigger, 60 will be too many. Keep about 30 where you can be quite sure of water quality.

Adequate number of fishes also gives you a less overcrowding scene and more visual space to admire your scaping.
