we already have the 29, it was the first "big" tank we ever bought. The "problem" is that the 29 is in use at the moment, stocked as a safe haven for our mango pleco, as well as a semi-aggressive tank. To take that tank down, would require some fish going to new homes. We do eventually have plans to upgrade to a 75 gallon, just a matter of when, at which point we can setup the 29 as a brackish tank. I was questioning about turning the 3 into one, to allow us a good learning curve, and a chance to better our skills before going to a larger tank. If the general census is to avoid this plan, I can relate, but some better reasons would help me understand the rationale of it. I do agree, it is a small tank, but why not use it to house 1 puffer in it's younger stage? As he grows older, he will be moved into a more comfortable home, so as not to totally stress him. I am in no way trying to argue, but to better understand. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated,
