best overall tank size?

[nativelover]

whats the best overall tank size for managability and stockability? and maybe availability.

 

[piranha45]

125g. Far more available/manageable, but far far less stockable is the 55g.

 

[rayman45]

i say 180
6 long
2 wide
2 tall

you can go wrong
rays aro's snakeheads ,etc.

 

[piranha45]

meh, none of my lfses stock 180gs. Everyone seems to have 125gs tho

 

[rayman45]

yea
my lfs u have to special order
but that is the best prefab tank

Yep cant go wrong with a 180g.

I'd say 80 gallon (48" L x 18" W x 22" H) and 180 gallon (72" L x 24" W x 24" H) are some of the best overall sizes for their ability to house relatively large fish without being too large to fit in most homes.

I think the perfect width of a good tank should be atleast 30 inches wide....thats my opinion ....even though my widest tank is only 24 inches. 30 inches wide should be perfect for most MONSTER FISHES

yeah the wider the better for monster fish. I want a 30 inch width tank too.
