Hey everybody so far this tank is up and running and everything is going great fish are happy and growing!
So far stocking is as follows
4 molly and 1 balloon
2 platy
4 guppies
1 Angelfish
1 blood parrot
1 bristlenose pleco
1 red tailed black shark
1 whip tail catfish
So far absolutely 0 issues I know BPs and Angels shouldn’t live with guppies there is 0 harassment from anything perfectly peaceful been this way for months so that’s a good thing. But I was curious is there room for anything else? I was thinking about adding 4 more guppies and 1 more whiptail catfish any opinions would be awesome thanks.
for filtration I have 2 marine land penguin 375s and a sponge filter I perform weekly 70 percent water changes

Honestly I see the guppies getting eaten eventually, so I wouldn’t add any more. And another cat may push it over the edge.
How big are all the fish? Stocking is safe but I definitely wouldn’t go any more than what you have…this is speaking from experience.
