Just wondering....

[greekcardinal]

I have a 20 gallon tank, and although I already have fish in it, I was just wondering what is a good "load" for that size tank? (I have 2 dalmation Mollies, 2 white Mollies, and 3 Mickey Mouse Platy). And......what kind of algea eater would be supported in this tank? I stated before that I had a pleco, but he was floating this morning =(

Is your tank cycled? That load is fine, you could probably add 3-4 more small-medium fish with no problems. A good algae eater would be a true Siamese Algae eater.

Or a bristle nose pleco. They don't get as large as common plecos. You could safely add a few more fish as long as the tank is cycled.
