Are my tanks overstocked?

Answer 1

You stocked your tanks very well. All of these fish stay small and the pleco only gets up to 5 inches. What are your test results from the tanks?

Eddit:

your tests results sounds really good. Please keep it up and your fish will have a nice heathy life.

Answer 2

waow, not at all man, in both tanks i would think of adding maybe a small shoal of bottom cleaners, the plecos dont do the best job in the world, even though they do make a great addition to the tank. Options for both tanks could be: maybe add another small shoal of peaceful community fish (tetras or danios of somekind), or a small shoal of corys for the bottom in order to keep the bottom cleaned. You really arent overstocked right now, but then again, its nice for the fish to have a good amount of space....good luck with it

Answer 3

No, your tanks are not overstocked.  In fact you could add more fish to each if you wanted.  I would suggest some cory cats to liven up the bottom of the tank, and they would go well with all of your other fish.  

Answer 4

No, they're fine.

Answer 5

i guess its ok :)

love u g*y friend ~ chris~

Answer 6

In general, if you follow 1-inch/gallon, you're fine.

But you wanna make sure that they have enough horizontal swimming space as well. If it's just a regular (not TALL) 29-gallon.. you're VERY FINE. Depending on the size of your Pleco (it can grow super big), you can probably add a bit more if your tank water is well maintained.

Answer 7

No!!  If anything your UNDER stocked!!  Just be sure to follow the one inch a gallon rule and you should be fine!
