got a new 20gallon

Post by ShadowDancer10k »

i finally got a big tank-a 20 gallon tank!! to me, that is big news because I don;t have a lot of space and I was not expecting to get one. the thing is, my 5gallon tank leaked a second time and so I talked my mom into getting a bigger and better tank. She agreed and we went to Petsmart to pick up my new aquarium. It is still cycling so there are no fish in the tank as of yet. this will be my main tank now instead of my 10gallon, which that one is being used for guppies. all 5 of my catfish are going in the 20gallon tank-they are cories by the way. along with guppies and some ghost shrimp. (2 of them)

Congrats to getting a new bigger tank.

I'm inclined to paraphrase Crocodile Dundee "That's not a big tank, this is":

this tank will, I'd say, not be more than 150 cm - that is 5 feet

Can't say that's big, in fect it's too small even to bath in :shock:

My first two tanks were two five gallon tanks...took great pride in them...spent all my home time around them...still have the old ADI issues I read from front to back and then again over and over sitting beside these tanks.First fish bred...convicts in those tanks.
37 years later still sitting beside my tanks and enjoying them...but trying to get those d#rn microsyno's to breed...

Enjoy your new tank!!
