Tom,
on this train of thought, what do you consider an average stocking density?
Many of the magazines quote x inches of fish per gallon, etc.
I always try to aim for about 2 gallons per fish in bigger tanks, averaging bigger fish with the smaller. Thus in my 135 USGal (plus 15 Gal in the sump) I have about 50 smaller fish (neons etc) and a dozen larger fish (6 elephant nose and 6 discus)
