just wanted to know if my tank might be overstocked?
6 Congo tetras (2 big, 4 small)
7 pristella tetras
4 cherry barbs
3 blue rams
2 red fire dwarf groumies
4 upside down catfish
6 bronze cories (large)
5 panda cories (all small)
3 ottos
1 flying fox
1 bn pleco
1 clown pleco

everyone is doing fine, and the tank looks great. The lfs said it sounded really good and might look better with a school of neon tetras, but i don't know, i think it is fine where it is.
thanks

Instead of adding an additional school of tetras, I would suggest adding extras of the tetras you already have.

Sounds like a good mix.

I agree if you want to add some more of the same schooling fish.

But if you like the tank now I would not temp fate and enjoy your fish.

i don't know about the ottos, the 3 i have are very acitive and I have alot of algea eaters, so a school of neons should be ok? I was thinking that a schools of about 8-10 might look nice.

ok thought it out if I add a few more cherry barbs I could raise thier numbers so they might school, and may be 2 neon blue dwarf groumies

Would I be over stocked though?

thanks
