You really need to change the bioload for cories. I placed 3 or 4 cories in a 29 gallon tank and it came up as 35%, which was nearly twice as high as 3 mollies.

You should try adding cories when you are at 90%.

Sorry I didn't elaborate further - I was answering from my cell on the previous post.

The reason for this is because the app calculates how much theoretical space it would need for the selected species. Give you an example, 20 neons may fit in a 20g tank but 1 neon won't be a good idea to have in a 1g tank. But no problem if you have 19 in your 20g tank already and adding one more.

Awesome. That's a lot of work you put into that. Apparently I am over stocked, which is ok because I am planning on switching my Lepornius to a different tank which leaves me at 97%. Wow, I was told I have room to add more!

You'll find that aqadvisor tends to stock a tad on the light side. If you're well experienced in fishkeeping you'll probably be fine overstocking by 10-15%. The newer you are to the fewer fish you should be keeping. It's normally safer that way.

BTW, this is a necro post.
