Fish Size According To Community Creator

Hi everyone,
I've been on holiday for a few weeks but I'm back now.
All my fish have survived and I'm now looking to add some new fish to my 180 litre juwel rio aquarium.
I've been on the CC to try to calculate stocking levels, but not all of the fish I have are listed.
So, in particular, I would like to have some advice on cories – specifically how many panda cories equals 1 Sterbai cory.
In other words, for the purpose of calculating what the maximum stocking level for my tank is, how many panda cory should I substitute for 6 Sterbai cory. If I can get some kind of equivalent measure, then I can calculate how fully stocked my tank is.

Does this make sense? I do hope so! Any advice would be gratefully received.

That's great, thank you.

I will calculate that I have 12 panda cories then.
Another quick question, if you don't mind.
I quite fancy getting a couple of keyhole cichlids. Would they be OK with 7 cherry barb, a BN plec, a platy (just one now, I managed to rehome the others to local fish keepers because they were so agressive), 5 red chinned panchax and 2 honey gouramis (which I also want to get).
 The CC doesn't seem to throw up any objections, but I wondered if anyone has kept keyholes in a community tank.

From what I read (never having had them myself) keyholes are one of the less aggressive cichlids, though they will become more aggressive if they breed (like all cichlids!) Seriously Fish does say that "suitable tankmates are too numerous to list" which sounds like they get on with most other fish. I would give them a try, you don't list any other fish that jump out as being a problem

Seriously Fish reckons juveniles are impossible to sex, while adult males have longer dorsal and anal fins. That sounds as bad as bolivian rams 

If you want a non-aggressive cichlid, most of the south American dwarf species are only aggressive when they are breeding, though most are smaller than keyholes. I've had, over the years, Apistogramma cacatuoides,, A. borelli, A. trifasciatus and Nannacara anomala. They've all been fine with their tank mates and the ones that have bred haven't actually harmed their tank mates. Extreme_One has A. agassizi in his tank and he's not reported any problems.

I have Pigmy Corys, and when my female Aggasiz's was guarding the nest the Pigmy Corys got the message.
She was even able to get the Tiger Barbs to stay away.
