Are you having problems? If not, Why do you care? You have other tanks to rehome some of your fish if need be.

No. Just wondering if it's too much bioload.........................

Also what test kit do you use for brackish? The FW or SW? Or neither....
 
use a test kit to find out if it's too much bio-load, if it is, get another filter, or keep up on the water changes. Over stocked tanks are a common thing, you see it everywhere on mfk, but you usually see a nice wet/dry or canister to make up for it. Depending on how brackish your tank is will depend on the type of test kit, but the FW one should be fine.
 
That's a lot of F8s to have together. You will just have to see.

Waterchanges as a remedy for an overstocked brackisk tank? Your asking for trouble and $$ flying out of your account
