what to upgrade to

[neekaragua]

I will be moving in febuary and upgrading my setup but im having a hard time deciding on what size to move up to a 90, 120(48x24x24), or 125(72x18x22)
my current setup is a 40g with 2 2.5" rbp's, 10 black tetras, 5 cardnal tetras, 5 neons and a 8" common pleco
at my lfs the price difference between the three is only $50
I also want to get 3-5 more piranha

IF you have the room bigger is always beter

You are much better off choosing the 125G. They have a very nice footprint.

You better start counting your tetra loses soon.

thats true but the 125 seems real long and acward looking at 6 foot
the 120 has almost the same size footprint
1152' square for the 120
1296' square for the 125

i lose about 10 a week but i get them cheap

Think of it this way, the 125G has the same height as the 4x2x2 yet it is 2 feet longer but 6" thinner. If you ask me and almost anyone else, the Piranhas will look and do much better in the 125G.
