In my tank overstocked? 20 neon tetras, 10 glow light tetras, 2 zebra danios and 6 exclamation dot rasporas. Posted by whatever_cornever
Odd_Research124 on February 22, 2026 2:02 am What size is your tank? If it’s a 30 gallon or more, it’s probably fine in my opinion
Constant-Law916 on February 22, 2026 2:38 am I’d say yes, pick 2/4 fish to keep and build their schools (your neon tetra school is good)
Apprehensive-Big-328 on February 22, 2026 3:09 am Id argue no. If you keep up on water changes and have a decent clean up crew, I see no issues.

Yes get rid of the zebra danios 🤣
Nah it looks ok. They seem to have plenty of room
