Who ever said it earlier that smaller tanks are more challenging.. are correct IMO.. If one thing happens, the whole thing can blow up in your face. I'd go with the 29gal and go nuts with the aquascaping.

I got my 10gal new in box for 20$... only reason I got it that small.

Ok thanks for the input RVD. She just got back today and she's beat...so she's going to sleep in tomorrow, and take the day off of school. I'm going to take her out to lunch and to the Pet Store, and let he go wild :)

Bigger tank and planted (live plants) makes everything easier in my experience.

Build it in stages to let everything settle.
Tank, add plants , wait, add more plants, wait,etc. Add fish, wait, add more fish.

I love aquariums but am in a rental that bans them right now.

Also wait until you get some corkboard and start learning about vivariums and you'll go broke....

Could be. A lot of people build them with fish in the bottom and frogs up to. Dart frogs make it awesome.

Are those the frogs that you can wipe on a piece of glass and let it dry in the sun to trip balls?
