xlinkinparkx Fish Addict Posts: 521 Kudos: 353 Votes: 2 Registered: 23-Apr-2005	Is this too much for a 48G long? 1 Dwarf Gourami 8 Harqulin Rasboras(or small Tetra) 2 Keyholes 2 Rams 6 corys If its too much should I get another pair of rams instead of the Keys and all babies will be put in another aquarium. My friend told me its way too much for a 48G...so I wanted to double check. 10gallon: 8neons 5gallon: 1betta 1oto 2platys

I just think the bottom area is a little crowded. Rams tend to stick to the bottom and I think keyholes might also. Having those two pairs, along with the cories will make it a little crowded. How long is the tank? If its pretty long, then maybe the keys and rams will have enough room to establish their territories. Sticking with a smaller cory type should help prevent overcrowding. I would up the Harlies to 10. They are small, so I think you could have a larger school. Other than that, I see no problems. *Kristin*

Every now and again she will venture up near the surface. She hides in the plants. My bolivian ram is always near the bottom. Just set up some caves and hiding places for the rams and keys, then you shouldn't have any problems. *Kristin*
