tmcgee has fishy dreams
To add to talloulou's comment about the biggest tank you can afford. The reasoning is that it is easier to maintain water parameters in a larger tank. Temps fluctuate less and more water equals more fluid to dissipate the harmful chemicals. And when you do water changes it is a bit easier i've found. With a 10 gallon you can't vac much up because you lose a lot of water very fast and you really don't have 10 gallons in there cuz you have gravel, decor, etc. Just my two cents!!
