with 2

and
| another 3 ft with 1 queen pleco, 3 black tetras, 5 neon tetras, 2
adult
| female guppies, seven 2 month old guppies and 6 2 week old guppies.

fish around

remove the

build a

tank would

60 gallon
| etc. (intellectually challenged)
|

If *you* could provide some dimensions as well, that would be
helpful. I have 3 tanks that are 2 feet long, and they all hold a
different volume of water, which is the really important part of this
equation. The length and width of every 2 foot tank in the world is
not the same.g

FWIW, clown loaches will eventually reach a foot long under best
conditions, and bala's are rumoured to reach even larger sizes. Plan
accordingly.
