New Senegal Aquarium - waiting on fish
- Thread starter Anka
- Start date
Thanks guys. Feeling a lot more relieved.
How many senegals could I put in my tank? At the moment I have 1 adult Senegal, 9 medium sizes Congo tetras, 1 African butterfly fish, 1 elephant nose and 1 brown African knife fish on the way. I want to put it at least one female.
I'm running 2x eheim 2215 filters.

4x1.5x2
But the available swimming space is reduced the large 3D background.

Seems like there are too many bottom dwellers as it is. For each level I like to keep max length of each fish equal or less than half of the tank length. For your tank I would say elephant nose=12in senegal bichir=12in african brown knife=10in so 12+12+10=34. I would consider that too many bottom, but since they are not particularly aggressive there shouldn't be a problem, but I wouldn't push my luck with another bichir.
i like bichirs in groups but that only personal preference, the OP can always upgrade!!
That's just my personal stocking preferences(the reason there are so many"I"s in the post) . I like to try to lightly stock to make it easier on myself, but I'm sure he could get away with it.
And of course the OP can always upgrade!!!
Wow, going by that formula, all of my tanks are overcrowded just using two of the many fish in there. 
I've never liked formulas for stocking, none make any sense. As long as the fish have adequate cover, and enough spots that they can all hide independently if they want, then you are good.
