Aquarium Advice Freak
Well I have this 20 gallon tank and its time to trade it up. The fish in there are to big for it and I want a nice large tank for the bed room. I really wanted a 40 breeder or one of the larger square tanks, but I found this one on sale at PetSmart and it seemed like the most bang for my buck. I have had a Fluval G3 as extra filtration on my 55 for 12 weeks so Im going to use it and hopefully avoid a lengthy cycling of the tank. I chose Eco Complete with a one bag of Flora Max on the bottom. I got one of the nicer Fluval E heaters thats rated to 60 gallons also. The main thing that held me up was finding the perfect piece of drift wood. I searched and searched in every store in town and online. Finally a store in town called the Aquarium had a big sale and I found it. So I added the substrate and the plants from the 20 gallon along with the wood, heater and filter. Its been filled for two days and has just the slightest trace of ammonia so now Im waiting for it to balance out.
