Bored with my tank

[PilotGav]

I hate to say this, but I'm bored with my tank. I have a 29 gallon community tank, with some really nice fish, but after six months I'm just bored.

I still love fish keeping – I just want to make it exciting again.

Any ideas?

Get another tank

Have you done a planted tank yet?

You can

1. Redo the decor
2. Rearrange existing decor
3. Add new stock ... Depending on what you have, you can try shrimp.
Since adding shrimp, my tank's got a new level of activity.

I have found that converting my existing tanks to live plants has made it more interesting for me.

All great advice. I have a 20g I've inherited (just the tank), and have two active 10g tanks running. 1 with a lone betta, and one with some platys.

I think going planted in the 29g is a good idea. I'll just have to plan ahead as to what to do with it's inhabitants while I'm switching over

Awesome, planted tanks are beautiful and not boring at all. Something you get to watch grow and change all the time
