Aquarium Advice FINatic
I recently aquired a new tank it's a 20 gal long which is roughly 10 years old, maybe more! :? Here is a pic: http://img183.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc09790su9.jpg
I initially thought the tank would be a 30 gal but when i calculate the volume it is roughly a 20 gal (Imperial UK Gallons)
My question is... Is it worth setting it up?
I have a 20 gal already and i suppose i would like to experiment with other types of fish and i could also move my bristlenose into the new tank.
Or alternatively i could just save up for a much larger tank and get different fish then.
I do see it as a waste if it's just sitting there unused but part of me thinking that is the fact that i would like to set another up.
For those of you that have a number of tanks do you see any point in having two tanks of roughly the same size?
I measured both tanks and here are the results (in inches)
My established tank (in sig) Width: 31 Height: 15 Depth: 11.5
The new tank: Width 36 Height: 14.5 Depth: 12
TIA
