Nice tank! What light do you have on this?

Just a little question. With your experience, the issues that go with a nano and your equipment, why are you doing a 20 gal?

when i first set up my 20 (its no longer up)

and the one i have now.

and my 10g AIO that im building still.

if youve got alot of questions, im sure i can help, as ive really only dealt with nano-tanks since ive gotten into this hobby.

well i would like to go bigger. and in time i will.
right now i have 4 boy 10,8,18 month old twins.
house is crazy and space is tight.
a nano will get me back in to the swing of things
then i can buy stuff slowly and get what i want.

just a heads up i spent 1200 bucks on my first tank, then more after i upgraded my lights. so try and find some deals, do alot of DIY stuff and take your time and know exactly what you want from the tank.

You might want to consider an AIO with a full hood if you have small hands looking to "feed the fishies". This is the reason I went with an Aquapod 12.
