I work at a local pet shop but i am not very up on fish stocking levels in a tank.
i've had a look on a website that had a fish stocking calculator and it said for the tank i am looking to get ( 60L ) i can get 72cm of fish. would an apple snail and 3 or 4 Yamamoto shrimp be counted in this measurement of fish as they don't produce that much waste.
Cheers.
 
It doesnt matter how much the produce waste. It is how much space they take up. So yes they do count.
 
Yes. Any living thing in that tank contributes to the bio-load in some way. The best way to monitor your water quality is with a test kit.
