29 gallon tropical freshwater stocking question?
I have a 29 gallon tropical freshwater aquarium and i'm not sure how many more fish i would be able to add or if i even have too many right now. i know the 1 inch per one gallon rule but its kind of difficult to tell exactly how long the fish are or know how big they will get eventually. I don't have any live plants, just the fake ones and some shells. i purchased the aqueon 29 gallon aquarium so i have the filter and heater from that set. I can do water changes every 2 weeks or so and clean the gravel every month and i haven't had any problems with water quality yet. so here are what i have
1 male betta
3 fancy guppies
5 zebra danios
1 green swordtail
1 powder blue dwarf gourami
1 baloon bellied molly
1 gold dust molly
1 cherry shrimp
1 ghost shrimp
if the male bettas has been in this tank w/o problems- leave it alone and let him stay- some are capable of living in community tanks.
dont add any more shrimp- the gourami and betta and swordtail will eat them eventually...
add in a couple cave decorations, and a few more plants.... the gourami and betta might try and kill each other- a 29 is big enough for both- IF they both have their own territorys.
ADD 2 more zebra danios to fill out their school
ADD 3 more balloon mollies
ADD 6 small cory cats to the bottom ( panda, julii, skunk) ( the others get to big)
You should gravel vac 1/4 of your tank weekly, while doing a 25% weekly water change.
