Aquariums: At my gynos office, is this tank too small?
6 pretty good sized fishes in here, I don’t know much about tanks but isn’t this way too small?
I had a betta and two African dwarf frogs a few years ago in a 5gal and I know that was pushing it for tank size.

Hard to say, looks like a 75 gallon? If so I’d say thats right around where id say its flirting on the edge.

Meh it’s about what I’d expect. Looks like a tinfoil barb that basically doesn’t belong in aquaria imo. But what’re you gunna do at least it looks like they take care of the tank. I wouldn’t go looking to be the fish police and if you had to fish police there are bigger crimes to go after.

It would depend on the maintainance, but space wise it looks fine for those fish.

It’s kind of on the edge, but the fish seem healthy so no problem

Looks ok for now especially if you didn’t notice any aggressive behavior. Some species of fish can get aggressive and territorial which can cause problems even in a moderately stocked tank. It’s also a good sign that the tank is super clean and maintained so I would imagine whoever doing that is looking out for such problems.

Nah it’s totally fine. However cichlids like having their own nooks so they could probably add more cover.
