Hmm, you should probably just wait buddy. =)

Go do something for your community tank. Maybe that will help.

I know for a fact that if your on the comp continuously reading about them, thats good but will only make you more anxious.

I'm in the same boat as you I have a 150 thats I'm moving the fish to another tank and starting over. But first I had to save up to get a second fx5 took about a month finally got the money and ordered it and its here today. Now I need to save up for a 55 so my terror who's in the 75 can go in there then the Oscar and 5 clowns are going back in the 75.

What I do is spend a lot of time on here and just doing research on the computer as times goes by its get easier. Just make sure you wait putting him in a community tank would be nothing but bad.
 
lol well my community tank is pretty small and gettin full... as far as plants i have a large amazon sword,three tiny swords,and two plants that im not sure what they are called but they grow straight up and you can clip them and replant...then for the stock i have a powder blue gourami,red fire? gourami,honey sunset gourami,5 zebra danios,baby plec,1 oto..i know theyre schooling fish but they kept dying so when i move my plec to my new tank im gonna get a few more,a kuhli loach,bamboo shrimp,two mystery snails,and four ghost shrimp :) so idk what else i could possibly do lol...but dont worry,it sounds like a lot but they are all very healthy and happy and have plenty of room :)
 
i have basically the same problem but its the tank, i bought a 180+ gallon tank it cost me $1350 and mum wont let me set it up so it has been sitting in the car shed for 10 weeks
 
but i like my community tank...its my first tank ive ever set up lol..ive already got the tank i just have to wait for it to come home with my brother in a month haha

Take a picture! That doesn't sound very heavily planted, you could definitely spend a week or so working on that and making it look awesome :bling:
