put 2 170's as that way you can't go wrong.unless you are putting small long find top swimmers that might be too much for them.never go with the "recommened tank size on the filter box as no one ever stocks their tank that lightly so the recommened size is inadaqute.i seen your in las vegas from another thread were do you pick up you fish supplys.
It used to be Green Valley Aquarium, but they're tearing up the place right now. Last time I was there, I also saw their prices had gone way-high. Oddly enough, I've had my best experiences lately with Petco on Rainbow @ Spring Mountain ... great selection of fish, but they're prices could be lower. F.I.S.H. Tropical has BioSpira at a decent price. No one seems to be stocking a nice variety of fish right now.
i work at one of the local stores but i wish to remain unknown until i can figure out if your a regular or not.some of our regulars are idiots and i don't want to insult you if you are.green vally has great fish and not just the regulars either,but yea the price is high for fish.what kind of fish are you looking for?i suppose if you pm me i can help you out.
It was Gold Barbs. I probably went to every fish store in town. Found them at Petco. The ones I actually bought were Gold Rosey Barbs ... even brighter. Next year, when they're in season, I will be looking for Clown Loaches. I found them at Petland for 3.99 a piece in February, but they quickly sold out. I didn't have room for them anyway. I hope to have a 75 gal by next year, room permitting.
I'm not much of a "regular." I go where the product and prices are right. I'm probably going to get my 20 gal tank from Tropaquarium because their prices, at last check, were amazing ... something like $19.95 for the 20 gal w/ hood and light housing.

please for the love of god don't go there.i can't stand that store.mostly because they sell painted fish.that and they only have hagen products.i belive in a choice when it comes to what you put in your tank.how about 43 gal,with hood and stand for 80 bucks or the 43 alone for 32 bucks.i'm not trying to sell stuff but i think its a better deal in the long run.if your interested write back.
ah yes space ,so little to spare for fish.i just moved and i get the whole living room as my fish room.i have an 84 gal.as my com.tank.if all you can fit is a 20 do some measurements and check and see if you can't fit a 29-30,they have almost the same measurements.20 is just so small.i don't know if you caught this in the other thread either but check the local paper i see some good deals there too.have you been to a.t.m. yet?i don't think i could afford anything they have in the way of tanks but none the less it's still amazing.one can dream
My cousin said there was an acrylic aquarium store near the airport that was phenominal. Anyway, I have a ten that's probably borderline over-stocked, if not already (red-tailed shark, three albino cories, 5 serpae tetras and 5 dwarf frogs), and that's ultimately why I want the 20. My 30 has 4 rosey barbs, 5 gold rosey barbs, 4 white-skirt tetras, 3 giant danios, 3 emerald cories and a red-tailed shark, and like I said, I just won't have space for at least a year to do what I really want. I checked the RJ last week ... nothing. But, I'll continue scouring my resources. I plan on turning the ten'r into some kind of aquatic art piece, maybe with a betta or guppies or something. Suggestions?
yea that ten is kinda heavy but it will do for a while,once i kept 7 corys and a small-medium pleco in a five with only a penguin mini.atm is the acrylic store by the airport on the landing strip side .it's off of patrick and annie oakley hard to find though.if your looking to turn your ten into something nice i would try to go amano,grow moss on everything and put some striking plants for contrast.like say one promenet rock coverd in java moss and then something with red to stand out.
