Overstocked ?

[selvan777]

Hello again,

What do you think of this with better filtration in a 20 long?

What if I had a single AquaClear 50 Power Filter with one mechanical foam filter, some water floss and 2 bio-max bags on top of it all (no carbon)? How often do you think I should change each of those considering my water change ritual of 10 gallons (more than 50%) every 5 to 7 days in a well planted aquarium?

Thanks, I can't believe I may actually be able to pull it off!

I want to have:

18 Cardinals
08 Cory Pygmy
06 Endler males
01 Ghost Shrimp
03 Otos

You'll probably want to clean your mechanical filter pad daily, as well as changing out the filter floss at least once a day. As far as your bio-media is concerned, you don't want to replace that very often, if ever, as doing so would be ridding your tank of beneficial bacterial colonies. Adding some type of chemical filtration media would also help you out tremendously by controlling organic waste.
