That 520 is probably pretty dang sweet. Maybe once I move. My ultimate goal is to one day have a 300+ gallon tank and a silver aro, probably with a few oscars. For now, I'd rather be safe than sorry. Even if I upgrade to a 75, I'll still have to get rid of some of my fish. The barbs for sure... and probably the oscar. I hate to see them cramped. I'm still thinking about those poor babies on the video, and I know it's definitely not right to keep animals in an environment that's too small. I'll start thinking about how to handle this and hang on to all the fish for a few months. They're not too big for the 55 yet, just getting close. Like you said, the complex may change ownership again. We average two years with each company, and I think this one's getting a class-action lawsuit filed against it for unethical billing practices.IITUFFTOBEATII;1574017; said:

Got it. Understand the changes in contracts for financial reasons and why, was just kind of suprised to learn that there through civil code they can also change them to later edit out things they don't personally like (which also would give them the ability to apply it to unrelated things) such as fish tanks as long as they provide advanced notification (but of course people will always find loopholes through thier open interprettation of the codes and laws in order to do so) . Thanks for clarifying the diffs in Cali.
We live in a 2nd story apartment, and as much as I would like to have a 90 gallon or so, I think the weight becomes an issue. Maybe you could explain to your landlord/lady that since you are right on top of concrete, there should be no reason to worry. We got renter's insurance; I even made sure the insurance people knew it was for fish tanks. Maybe explore those options. It seems to me that only the stupidest of people refuse polite reasoning, especially since there's no REASON for your limitations.
I would decide what fish you like the best, and try to accommodate them. One oscar in a 75 should be okay with good upkeep. . . Good luck!

I totally agree, but she came by to deliver a notice this morning and we talked about it again. It's an absolute no. We already have renter's insurance and we've been excellent tenants since 2001, and still we get no recognition.... and thanks.bluegryffin;1574101; said:It seems to me that only the stupidest of people refuse polite reasoning, especially since there's no REASON for your limitations. . . .

OH! And, it would seem the plumbing is NOT fixed. This is what she delivered: "ATTENTION RESIDENT(S): The water will be turned off due to a major water leak. TUESDAY March 4TH, 2008 BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 10 TO 3 PM. We apPologize for any inconvIenience. THANK YOU, MANAGMENT."
That's a direct quote, I left in the errrors for your entertainment.
buy another 55 gallon put them side by side. then buy a 10 or 15 gallon silicone in some pieces to make a over the top connector get it. using a center over the top upside down connector will give you 110 plus connector space. i had a 10 gallon upside down hung with 1 inch s hooks i flipped the tank upside and put the s style hooks add water and suck the air outta the top you would hav to silicone three peices of glass together then remove a center section of about 5 inches . then you have 118 gallon.
