an awesome site! love mixing and matching the database.
is there a way to exclude corydoras as a territorial fish, they are the least bit territorial.
i think it says that when the tanks are small.
keep up the great work and thanks again. i'm certain you've helped a lot of people out.

I don't think I marked Cories as territorial but you are right, when the tank becomes really small, it will show a warning. Perhaps I need to refine that message.
Glad that you like it.

I was playing around and something "fishy" is happening with the filtration. With an Eheim 2028, it says 158 US gal while an Eheim 2078 says 180 gallons. However, with the fish I chose, it says I'm at 72% filtration capacity with the 2028 but 82% with the 2078. That seems backwards?
Edit: Never mind. I just played around some more and really it means I need more filtration so is correct. I put in 2080 and it said 146% meaning I'm overfiltered. Just my own interpretation of the numbers I guess.

Actually it makes sense.
filtration % represent how sufficient your filter is. So less than 100% means you don't have enough. Keep in mind that AqAdvisor is somewhat conservative here. And I know as a fact that some experts have been able to keep their setup with less than 100% filtration level without issues.

Equipments:
Tank (LxDxH): 24 x 12 x 12 inch (15.0gUS)
Filters: Hagen Fluval 105
Selected species:
8 x White Cloud Mountain Minnow (Tanichthys albonubes)
1 x Zebra Nerite Snail (Neritina natalensis sp. Zebra)
1 x Otocinclus vestitus (Otocinclus vestitus)
8 x Cherry Shrimp (Neocaridina heteropoda)
6 x Galaxy Rasbora (Celestichthys margaritatus)
7 x Cardinal Tetra (Paracheirodon axelrodi)
1 x Albino Bristlenose Pleco (Ancistrus cf. cirrhosus)
6 x Amano Shrimp (Cardina multidentata)
3 x Furcata Rainbowfish (Pseudomugil furcata)
2 x Dwarf Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia maccullochi)
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

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!
