This is neat, but they are missing some species that I have.

They didn't have brown bullhead or black crappie.

Do you have scientific names for those?

Thanks.

I like the fact that you can put in juvie fish sizes...

This seems pretty accurate, all that's in my 55 gallon is a 9 inch pleco.
Though, the tank is at my folks' house so it's not getting the regular water changes. :c

I'll have to play with this thing some more, it's a very useful estimation tool.

If you want it to not be overstocked without buying a new tank, your only option is to get rid of all of the fish because none of them can live in a 35 gallon for life. If you want to keep them, then buy a 180g+ tank.
