Calculate the maximum fish capacity for your aquarium. By tank size, fish type, and filtration — avoid overstocking.

Faustregel
1 cm Fisch (adult!) pro 2 Liter. 100L: ~50 cm total. IMMER Erwachsenengroesse recherchieren. Goldfische gehoeren NICHT ins Aquarium — brauchen 150+ Liter pro Fisch.
Anfaenger
Mindestens 60 Liter. Neons, Guppys, Panzerwelse sind einfach. Ueberbesatz = Ammoniak = Tod.
⚡ CalcWolf Insight
New Tank Syndrome kills more fish than any disease. A brand-new aquarium has no beneficial bacteria to process ammonia. Cycle your tank for 4-6 weeks before adding fish — or use a "fish-in" cycle with hardy species (danios) and daily water testing. Ammonia and nitrite must be at 0 ppm before adding more fish.
