    Should I use my 55-gallon or 29 gallon tank?

    Thanks! Okay, so I just transferred the goldfish to the 65 gallon tank and am in the process of moving the loach. I do now have the API test kits and am testing daily. I've been doing 10-20% water changes most days. I will increase that. Question -- Do you recommend a pump I should use for...
