Hi all. When starting in the hobby I made the huge mistake of rushing out and buying a tank without doing any research into the size of the tank the fish I were to keep would require. Therefore after a couple of weeks I was widely told that my current tank was not big enough for keeping my Malawi cichlids. I have therefore decided after gaining more experience to reinvest again in a new tank, however this time I want to go about it in the correct manner. As previously mentioned I have been keeping Malawi cichlids, their current tank is 80 inches long and has a capacity of 33gal. I have narrowed my search down for a new tank to two possibilities. Both are 60gal in capacity however one is 4ft long whilst the other is 40inches long however is taller. What's the best option or are they both no good?
