What is Aquarium Stock?

An aquarium stock is the amount of fish that someone should place in any given aquarium to allow for proper living space for fish. In general, this is usually provided as 2 inches of fish per gallon of water. This assumes proper filtration and care of the fish and aquarium.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Use the formula:

\[ F = 24 \cdot 12 \cdot 12 \cdot 0.004329 \cdot 2 = 29.93 \]

The Inches of Fish is 29.93 inches.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Use the formula:

\[ F = 36 \cdot 18 \cdot 18 \cdot 0.004329 \cdot 2 = 101.57 \]

The Inches of Fish is 101.57 inches.
