Save me from myself!
I started out thinking a 25 was big..
Then I doubled that, thinking better go BIG big and get a 55..
Now this week I was all settled on a 70-75g..
Today I'm thinking a 90 is just a couple more inches wide..
Might as well..
Would give me an excuse for 2 cannisters, 2 heaters, more depth..
75g - 20 cardinals : 7 panda cory : 5 Julii cory : 9 zebra danios : 1 CAE : 2 SAE : 2 yo-yos : 1 BN
25g: 5 long-finned zebra danios

Well, your addiction isn't with aquariums, its on spending money.
So, why don't you cut out the middle man, and just send it to me?
Money can't buy happiness, but it sure can pay the rent.

Nah, dude, I think 75gal is better than 90gal for plants, because the 90 is a few inches higher and I think that makes you need more light.
CORRECTED video of my fish. This link works. For sure. Really.

doug the 90 gallons are no bigger than the 75 gallons... the footprints are both 48 long by 18 deep. the height on the 90's are 26 inches instead of 22 inches on the 75 gallon.
75 Gallon South Cichlid: Tiger Oscar and Jack Dempsey
55 Gallon GT Tank: 1 Male GT and 8 Giant Danio
20 Gallon Long: Waiting for eco-complete planted red substrate that has been delayed 2 weeks due to weather.

Yeah, I was considering that, too..the 90 is a few inches higher and I think that makes you need more light
But when you consider the 4" of substrate, plus the little bit of room you have to leave so you can have floating plants..
I dunno..
http://elmersaquarium.com/h100perfecto_tanks.htmthe footprints are both 48 long by 18 deep.
Not according to this... Guess it depends on the manufacturer?Last edited by doug z; 02-07-2008 at 04:50 AM.

Yep, go for the 125! I was going to get a 60g (260L) at first, but was able to get a good deal on the 120G plus stand...I'm so glad I did. It looked HUGE at first, now it looks kind of small LOL Or get two tanks...I haven't got my fish for my first tank yet (cycling) and I'm already thinking about tank number two LOL
