We started a 45 gallon aquarium in 2011 and while its still running with a few fish left the majority of the fish have passed on with age over the recent years. We haven't added any fish for some time now and we are looking to re-stock it.
Current inhabitants:
1 raphael catfish (approx 12 years old!!)
4 bleeding hearts
1 platy
Here are the species we would like to add:
1 Pearl gourami
Bleeding hearts
Rummynose tetras
Corydoras
Can you help us define if these are good tank mates and how many rummynose, corydoras and bleeding hearts would make up a nice tank. Our thoughts are something like this:
1 Pearl gourami
6 Bleeding hearts
6 Rummynose tetras
6 Corydoras (3 panda + 3 julii)
Is it ok to count the corys as a group of 6 with 2 types?
AaAdvisor rates this as 78% stocked.
Is there any reasoning to the order the fish types should be added in?
We don't have any live plants.
We are running 2 filters, a Fluval C4 and aquaclear 150.
Thanks!
