Stocking 55g!

[Aquariumjunkie]

O and i have a question that been killing me for the longest!
Ok so abf fish are prone to jump often, so i will need tight lids and everything coverd.
but what i don't understand is that how am i going to cover all the gaps if all the lids for the tanks have that big gap in the back for the hanging filter and the heater and stuff, is there a differnet lid that i dont know about or do people just cover it up with like stuff around the house?

u can get plastic lids, and cut them to fit...

Just get a red devil and an oscar

umm i see ur new but dont just blurb out comments like that if ur just rying to get ur first five posts. That was terrible advice, feel free to ask why that is.

to th op:

The kribensis will do fine in a 55g, they can get aggressive though if u have a pairs breeding. so choose fast swimming or top dwellers for tankmates.

Oki thanks for all your help everyone, I'm not going to get the Oscar and red devil because right now im looking for more of a community, but later on i plan on owning an Oscar, from what i've heard they make awsome pets.

Right now i want a community, but my next tank im thinking of making it for Monsters only, i was thinking a arowana or two, i just love them and think there so kool, of coarse i know ill be needing a bigger tank than this 55g in the long run.

thanks again
