Title: Thinking of a new tank
Post by: hobo on July 01, 2013, 10:36:44 PM

Hi all.
Im thinking of a new tank already to run alongside my current 64l tank. there are some good deals on 150-350l corner tanks which would be better for me and saves space on a 4-6ft regular tank. the question i have is on stocking levels. does this go on the length of the tank or the water capacity?
Also has anyone got a corner tank they would recomend?

Thanks

Stocking levels generally go on the volume of water in the tank.  There are a few other things to look out for as regards matching active fish to a large enough length, but generally volume is the key.
