hi i have 2 mini catfish who when i asked and saw the adults dont get bigger then a thumb nail i think there cory catfish and 2 sail fin mollies in a 2.5 nano i have a under gravel filter and barely any decorations in there just some inch high aqarium glass is this over stocked? oh and i dont intend to keep any babies that might come up in that tank

the corys will be fine i think
the mollies will get to big at about 3"
get guppies...MALE guppies
you dont need breeding in such a small tank

2.5 gallons is way too small for any kind of fish.

You might get away with the stocking level in a 6 gallon, but I'd reccomend 10 gallons as being the minimum size for mollies.

Ditto, your tank is overstocked. Get at least a 10gallon for all those fish and definitely read up on cycling a tank (link in my signature) if you haven't already. All a 2.5 is good for is a single betta.

The problem with the cories will likely be that they want more space to roam around than a 2.5 provides. When the mollies grow up, the tank will definitely be overstocked as they can get pretty big (take a look in your LFS).

That said, back in the day my sister had 2 mollies in a 2.5 gallon tank and they couldn't have been happier. They wouldn't stop breeding, either...

sadly i doubt i have the room for a 10 gallon tank at the moment i might be able to pull off another nano since the one i have is on a bookshelf the other could go on another and i dont trust putting a bigger tank on my cases
