unused 20gallon

[graham]

I have a 20 gallon tank that is no longer in use because its inhabitants have been moved to my 75 gallon. It has everything it needs (heater filter undergravel hood light) I just dont know what to do with it. I was going to move my clown knife into it becuase he appeared to be sick, but is now over it.

I always wanted to get 2 piranhas, but I think that will be to small for them.

please help me decide.

Make it a planted tank with some of the smaller SH.

what is an SH?

 

[Gr8KarmaSF]

SH = snake head

You could also use it for a feederbreeder or hospital or qrnt. tank

Id use it as a hospital, growout, or feeder tank.

Howdy,

yeah, that'd be pretty tight in there pretty soon. Put some plants in there so that it looks nice and use it as quarantine/feeder tank. In my eyes, that's the best use of a surplus tank.

20g furnished tank hmmm, How about a few plants, a leopard bushfish (Ctenopoma acutirostre), one of the smaller synodontis cats like a penny cat (Synodontis nummifer), and a pair of something like redfin barbs (Barbus camptacanthus). Together they would pretty much max out the tank but would make a nice little African tank.
Glad to here the knife is looking better.

I had a breeding pair of Angelfish in a 20g High one time. That was fun until I lost interest. They were prolific breeders. You could almost set a watch by them. Every two weeks without fail eggs would appear on the slate. It took them a couple of times at it to become good parents. Amyhow that may be a thought for your tank.

some caves and plants with a couple of elephant noses would be sharp
