Too many choices - tank size

[AutumnEffect]

Thanks guys. So far 40 Breeder seems the way to go.

I can't wait to get things set up! Only 13 days until the tanks go on sale. Gotta get working on boiling the driftwood and creek gravel, and see about maybe getting a canopy made to go with the stand...

I know a 40-breeder is high on my wish list!

40 Breeder?

 

[AutumnEffect]

40 Breeder it is.

Thanks guys. I'll be sure to post pictures of the tank. Should I take pictures of the set up and stuff, or just the finished product?

I vote no to the 40 breeder.

why?

because you should be able to get a 65g tall (36x18x24) instead!

you always want to go with the max. volume for your given footprint and this is a very common tank size.

good luck with which ever you chose though!

Thanks 12 Volt Man. I hadn't even looked that far down on the tank list, but it would definitely work.

Agreed.

I also would go for the 40 breeder. I don't like the tall tanks, you can't add as many fish.
