I think that the filter is also something to take in consideration.

I was going to change my mirabello system for a Fluvial one, but after seeing the difference in size of the media, I now understand why the salesman said I could put more fish in mine.

yea, a bit overstocked. are you doing more frequent water changes to compensate?

But don't BN's only grow to about 5-6"? You are thinking of the common pleco which grows to 18".

Yeah, right! great mistake Callum!!!!! bristlenose grow up to 5" so the total would be 10". but the tank is still a little overstocked.
