AqAdvisor - Intelligent aquarium stocking calculator

[yhbae]

Yeah - if you are experienced, you will be able to do things this app says it won't. Remember, this app is more for less experienced keepers to get quick warnings and guidelines.

Just curious though, what do you have?

Equipments:

Tank (LxDxH): 24 x 12 x 12 inch (15.0gUS)

Warning: You NEED to add more aquarium filtration capacity!!!

Your aquarium filtration capacity for above selected species is 49%.
Recommended water change schedule: 64% per week. (You might want to split this water change schedule to two separate 40% per week)
Your aquarium stocking level is 140%.
Your tank is overstocked. Unless you are an experienced aquarist who can meet the maintenance/biological needs of this aquarium, lower stocking levels are recommended.

The filter has about 300 x more bio media than stock... plus the tank is heavily planted. Tank gets once weekly 7.9 gallon water change. Filter gets a weekly cleaning too

Thanks for the update.

Welcome.

[Morainy]

Thank you for this great tool. I use it quite often.

I just want to ask if you could check on the combination of dwarf gourami with cherry shrimp? I suggested this combo to someone based on the calculator's recommendation, but someone at BCA mentioned that the gourami would eat shrimp. I've never mixed shrimp with dwarf gouramis so I didn't catch that. Thanks!

Yhbae,
thanks a lot for such a great calculator! Good to plan different combination.
