A chicken-or-egg type question about your current main (or favorite) tank....

Did you choose the tank to fit the fish, or the fish to fit the tank?

Or maybe you chose one that didn't fit the other and had to upgrade tanks (or downgrade fish)???
 
Rather strangely perhaps, I selected the size of the tank first then researched what I would put in it.
 
i wanted an oscar.
and bought the right size based on him
it was funny when i had a big empty 55gal and an inch and a half baby oscar

I just choose the biggest tank i can fit in my house then buy the fish i like for the tank


I think a lot of people probably do that. What size did you end up with???

That's funny but a good choice. When he was little, were you constantly tempted to add more fish???
 
I had to upgrade tanks too... not all of us have the space or the cash for a 240+ gallon tank...
