The most widely known rule for stocking a tank is the one inch of fish per gallon of water rule. While this type of calculation works as a rough estimate, it leaves plenty of room for error.Click to see full answer. Considering this, how many fish can I have in my tank?The general rule of thumb is 1″ of fish per 4 liters, so you could have around five 3″ fish, or four 4″ fish.One may also ask, how many fish can you have in a 60l tank? Using an old formula of 12” of fish for every square foot of surface area, an Aqua Tropic 60 comes out with a carrying capacity of approximately 24” or 60cm of fish length. One may also ask, how many fish can you have in a 80l tank? As a general rule of thumb, a good stocking level is around 1″ of fish (adult size) per 1g of water. 80l is roughly 20g so you’re looking at 20″ of fish.How many fish can you put in a 55 gallon tank?The one-inch-per-gallon rule still applies, so be sure that you do not exceed 55 inches of fish in a 55-gallon tank. This roughly equates to four or five bottom-dwelling fish along with a couple algae eaters.
