Wilsta Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Personally i think your tank is over stocked, i suggest you do something about it now, get another tank and split your current tank in half, so you will have two tanks and two lots of happier fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardie Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 You've got plenty of filtration so along with water changes and regular maintance the water should be fine. The tank is fairly overstocked in my opinion however it doesnt seem to be a problem yet, however the clown loaches, silver sharks and black ghost knife are only going to get bigger and will present problems. Do you have room to upgrade tank size? Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchar Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 What type of tetra do you have....they will succumb to the pictus or synodontis I feel. merjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeW Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I agree with Andrea, while I dont think there are too many fish in the tank I think you have a few predatious species (those big whiskers on the pictus arent jsut for show !) in there. It should be fine though while all the fish are a similar size. If smaller ones start to go missing look to larger community fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E4G13M4N Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 The tank is not overstocked at this point in time, although i agree the tetras are likely to go missing.. How ever the Syno(depending on type), pictus and ghost will need a larger tank eventually.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
