I was looking and couldn’t find info on how to acclimate new fish. I am curious to what you recommend. Should I always isolate new fish and observe for disease before adding?I’m familiar with most methods but would love an article from you on this topic. Apologies if I missed it.

In reply to Kenneth …. You will be lightly stocked when all those are grown. With that filtration you can add considerable fish and still do very well.

Quick question reference stocking my 29 gallon.

I cycled it using your method and have and external filter (3.9l) volume with static k1 media in place.

Current stocking is 25 chilli rasbora (1 gram per fish when fully grown = 25 grams) and 6 panda corydoras (5 grams when fully grown = 30 grams)

So my estimates, when they’re all fully grown they’ll weigh 55 grams in total. Would this still be in the light stocking range or am I pushing it a little?
