 | 10 gallon stock ??? |
ctt33  Enthusiast Posts: 154 Kudos: 148 Votes: 0 Registered: 14-May-2004   | I a small 10 gallon tank with the following fish 3- pygmy cory 2- Sparkling Gourami 6- Black Neons 1- Cherry Barb The corys and Gourami stay real small 1-1 1/2. Is this to many. I have the lone cherry barb the longest but he would be the one to go. My other tanks are larger but pretty much maxed out as well. |

With weekly water changes and gravel vacs, you should be able to maintain a safe nitrate level. Even if you were to remove the cherry barb, not much would change. So I'd leave it as is. |

If you like you could even bump up the cory number to 6 or so total, and get the cherry barb a friend or two. Beyond that I wouldn't do anything. HTH |
