    To answer your questions:
    1. Depends on the filtration in the tank, but according to AqAdvisor you should be able to house 25 cherry barbs in the tank, on their own.
    2. Bacopa Monnieri will do well with just light and weekly fertiliser. It will grow slower than if it had CO2, but that is true of most plants.

    My internal filter is about 1200lh,, definitely my next setup. Thanks I definitely try bacopa special in my sparkling gourami tank, could I possibly use a disposable co2 form time to time to help speed up growth?
