Beblonde... where in Detroit were you from? Thanks for the reassurance that I'm not bothering you. I'll try much harder in the future... j/k!
The 29 gallon is just my starter tank... i wanted to buy that one first to make sure that getting back into aquaria wasn't just a childhood "fad." I was into it a ton as a kid, but I wanted to make sure (before I sink tons of money into a huge tank) that I was in it for real... I'm sure you understand.
Also, a local LFS has been having alot of specials on irregular tanks lately (aka: a brand-new 60+ gallon square tank that's, let's say, approximately 30x30x20... lol... I don't know how to measure tanks) that come with stand, tank, glass covers, and a light for around $230... so I'll probably end up going with something like those in the near future. Especially with a square one like that, I'd like to build up something that has (like my signature says) alot more elements to I can toy with different eco-systems.
As for max tank sizes, I'm living in a ground floor apartment (which is both good and bad for keeping fish), so getting anything more than 100 gallons right now is, most regrettably, beyond my reach. In a couple of years when I get my own house... well... then things will most certainly be different...
