on my 12.5 gallon tank cause i would like to make it an anemony tank but is it worth all the money and maintenence for a little box?? or should i get a fresh water small fish???
 
Way too small for an anemone, unless you want a flower or a tulip anemone.
 
In saltwater field, it is best to start with a large tank to make maintenance easier. Go with freshwater or sell the tank so you can save enough to start a 55g saltwater.:)
 
^^^^^
AGREED!
 
Now you're thinking! So what are your plans after that?
 
idk im shooting for a 40-50 gallon cause i got a big room.... my room was supposed to be a garage but was converted during construction to a 4th room so itll be big and away from windows the only thing is i need to kno wats a good filter for it....or does it depend on the fish??
 
Depends on whether you're going SW or FW.
 
lol oh yeah thats true ...well i think im better off with fresh water , i was thinkin would it be a good idea (if i get carniverous fish) to keep the 12.5 gl tank for feeder fish so i can breed them or is that hard?

You can always stick with livebearers to breed on but the space is not sufficient enough to accommodate hundreds of fry.
