shauntilyard Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hello, just pulled an old glass tank out from the shed, besides a really good clean how many fish could i keep in it. It is 60cmx30cmx30cm, i have tried many calculations but am getting confused, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I plan to put tropicals in it just live beerers i think abd a few bottom dwellers. I am looking for colour. Any suggestions. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patience is the main ingredient to starting up a new tank. Good stuff Shantily. Hope you find the article some use... and thanks Steve Bill.
