How many fish in a 50?? :)

[toytech]

I have a picture in my mind of a bunch of fish all squished against the glass with fins and things sticking out fo the top of the tank .As for whaterchanges i would just regularily test nitrates and do waterchanges acordingly to keep them at a level you deem aceptable .The thing that would worry me with that many fish would be O2 saturation , but you must be running a good skimmer so it should be ok. +1 on a picture , bet it looks awsome.

Time to pull out Mount Wannahockaloogie and crank open that air valve Brad .

hmm missed the no skimmer part.

I'll add a Tunze stream aimed across the surface for air exchange. If I need to, I can pull out a larger tank or do more water changes. Aggression is a top concern as well.
The plan is to treat all fish in this tank for 3 weeks until I can start re-adding to the main tank again, last week of april

As for your problem I would start praying to the fish gods.
And +1 on testing.
