To switch or not to switch

So like I have 2 fish tanks. 1 36 gal bow front and another 45 gal with curved edges. They are both really nice tanks. I have the 36 gal set up right now. I still need to do a bit more fixing up on the 45. It's 9 gal more than I have right now. Do you guys think it is worth it to switch? I won't be able to get something really big until I get my own place in about 2 years. But do you think it's worth it to switch now to give my fish more space or just wait? I have no idea what I will do with the other tank if I don't use it now lol.

Thanks in advance.

Wow! Ideas are endless lol you can switch, have a quarantine tank, a tank for breeders, a live bearers tank for fun and to watch. What ever you do is going to be awesome!
Have fun and enjoy.

I don't know that a 9 gallon gain would be worth transferring the 36 to the 45 - especially if the 36 is running well with no issues. It would take more willpower than I possess not to do something extremely expensive with the 45 though.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. It would be too much effort to switch. I think I might just wait. I don't know if I want 2 tanks set up tho lol.

Set up the other one. Don't switch, two tanks is better than one.
