Communist Hamster  Hobbyist Posts: 83 Kudos: 78 Votes: 7 Registered: 02-Aug-2004   | I have a 37G witha Fluval 4, stocked with 2 dwarf gouramis 7 Guppies 6 neon tetras 6 Bronze cories Just want to know if it is overstocked. If it is, I'll give the guppies or tetras to a good LFS. |

| PJ Big Fish Posts: 492 Kudos: 427 Votes: 326 Registered: 19-Aug-2004  | I think that's a good amount. You can probably add 1 more tetra and 1 more cory. Then i'll leave it like that. The tank sounds nice.  |

| Communist Hamster Hobbyist Posts: 83 Kudos: 78 Votes: 7 Registered: 02-Aug-2004 | Phew, thanks! I was thinking of adding 1 or 2 more neons to the shoal. I'll get some pics as soon as I borrow a good camera. |

| jasonpisani *Ultimate Fish Guru* Posts: 5553 Kudos: 7215 Votes: 1024 Registered: 24-Feb-2003  | You are not overstocked & yes, you can add 2 more Neons. Are the Guppy's, males or females?, but your Dwarf Gourami will keep them under control.  http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.deathbydyeing.org/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |
