What do people base 'overstocked' on?
Any thoughts appreciated.
Use aqadvisor as it is an excellent guide.
There are a few things that are not accurate such as some filters and some fish but it is still a very good guide.
Not all fish are listed but find a fish that is listed which is the same shape and size and use that one instead.
Stay safe & healthy everyone

Dosing pumps work very well for putting in liquid fertilizer when you aren't able to do it yourself consistently (or like me, tend to forget it). I have them add fertilizer daily, a bit before the lights go on, not once per week as the fertilizer bottles usually recommend (the weekly portion split into seven portions of course, not a weeks worth every day).
Not seen those before. they look interesting. My tank seems to be getting more and more gadgets!

I used to use it until it died and no longer works. Plus it struggled with my size of tank last time I tried and it worked.

I now have the site working thanks to @mikeyw64 instructions.

A simple to use calculator for working out how much to dose of a certain product, based on your aquarium water volume and the requirements of your product.
There are two major causes of fish deaths in an aquarium; new tank syndrome and over feeding.
If you take the time to read this you will hopefully not have to deal with new tank syndrome and you will create a healthy environment for your fish.
Cycling a fish tank can be confusing to beginners and experienced fishkeepers alike. If you’ve already read about it you’ll probably still be confused, because most cycling guides don’t really explain cycling in a manner that’s easy to understand. Here I’ll try to explain in simple terms what is essentially a very simple uncomplicated process.
Algae is a natural occurrence that has been present on Earth for over a billion years, thriving in environments with light and water. In moderate amounts, algae can have advantageous effects, such as utilizing ammonia as a food source, acting as a food source for fish and invertebrates, and producing vital oxygen through photosynthesis.
