So i have a 40g aquarium been set up for 2 months
2 internal filters one rated for 50g other rated for 30g ( probably not enough? )
Weekly 10% water changes ( too little? )
Stocking:
6 Platies
3 Zebra Danios
2 Bolivian Rams
10 Lampeye Killies ( reaches 1" max )
Rainbow Shark
So yeh, am I? thanks

I think your okay, maybe step up to 20% per week on the water changes if its not a problem, but 10% isnt too bad, especially since you dont have a heavy stocking. You could add few small fish like corys or a small school of tetras if you wanted, but the water changes would go up to 25% minimum.
Thats my opinion.

I woulld think you have room for a little more fish. But you should also do 25% water changes.

Looks good but I would do 25% weekly you could get maybe 8 neons or 7 rasboras.
You could also get 5 or 6 corys.

You're okay. If you did larger water changes (50%) each week, you could have more fish.

sounds like a good set up too me...25% water changes would help benefit the tanks inhabitants
