Question
I have 3 2" ryukin and 6 baby ryukin can koi or any other fish go in there its kind of cheap looking right now.  Also do i need snails or bottom feeders to help keep things clean? can i add in a albino frog? I have a millenium 3000 filter is this good enough for my tank?? thanks Aaron

Answer
Hello!

Your tank may be empty now, but it won't be for long.

Right now, if you plan to keep all your fish to adult size you will need a 125 gallon tank. If you plan to add a koi, you will need a 250 gallon tank.

Try to give away some of your fish, that tank is relly only big enough for one or two ryukins if you keep up with your water changes (50% weekly or 25% twice a week).
