Technically yes but is it really though? With a good filter and since the tank is heavily planted ( with lively healthy looking plants) + they are all tiny schooling fish that do well in numbers, the tank seems ok. The fish dont look stressed or crammed in.
I mean if that tank has been around for a while stocked like that and its still going the way it is, its working?
Not something that was set up overnight for an exhibition and would crash if stayed up a week

I think it looks well within balance 🙂 Overstocking is more about the stress of the fish and lack of nutrient uptake from plants/filtration.

They probably got that dense through breeding, that tank looks healthy af.
