So here is my situation. My wife wants my black 55G to take to her new office cause it matches better then our 36G (tall) with a cherry stand.

So my 55 is my growout tank and my Chocolates haven from the GT that she was with in my 120. I know the Chocolate can't stay in the 55 or thee 36 for life. I plan on big moves in the next year so long term care isn't an issue.

Tanks that I'm going to have to swap:

55G currently: 7" chocolate, growouts: pictus, 3 Nics, FM

36G Tall: two common goldfish (kids won em at the fair)

So I have to swap these two tanks. My main concern of course is the Choc. I assume I can get away with about 9 months or so with all of these in that tank. The FM is growing VERY slow and the Nics I've had for a few months with little growth.

Now the 36 has just a HOB piece of crap on it right now cause I could give a crap about those fish. I do have a Cascade 1200 I can throw on it. Would that be too much water flow in there?

So I think that's it, as you can see I'm stressed about it and she wants it moved in just a couple hours. Thanks guys.
 
It sounds like you have no choice, it either you agree or u sleep on the couch. but seriously speaking from what fish will you wife put in the 55 gal if she takes it??
 
Oh sorry, she wants the goldfish. UGH! It's fine with me if they are out of the house. I hate them. And yeah my plan is a 220 in my office and these guys I mentioned about going in my 120.
 
Moving the fish now. Still wondering if I should hook up that Cascade?
