#!CrunchBang Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Hi, I have a 60L tank stocked with 2 Clown Loaches, 2 Dwarf Gourami, 9 Harlequin Rasbora, 1 red female Swordtail, 2 Spotted Bristlenoses and a Golden Bristlenose. I was thinking about getting a Siamese fighter and was wondering if there would be a problem with any of the other fish and maybe if it might be overstocking the tank? I also have a 30L tank full of about 18 Swordtail young that I could put the fighter in but I'd prefer to have it in the main tank. Thanks for any help.

smidey Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 hello & welcome. I am not sure about the other fish you have but the clowns will need a much larger tank as time goes on. they will need a minimum 300L tank in the near future, what size are they now?

Deno Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 I'm pretty sure a fighter is not compatible with gouramis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#!CrunchBang Posted May 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Yeah, I am aware they will need a bigger tank in the future, I've only been keeping fish since February and plan on getting a much bigger tank in the next year. They are both 5-6cm at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 As said, gouramis and fighters are not compatible and you need to re-home the clowns although they will be fine until next year as they are very slow growers. I would not add any more fish to the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
