I got two freebies today, and I need to decide what to do with them, lol.

I currently have a 10g invert only tank, but I wanted something bigger. The tanks I got today were a 15 (tall) and a 20.

Should I set up the 20 or the 15 first? I have 6 cherry shrimp, a bunch of red ramshorns, a bunch of MTS, 6 adult Briggs (soon to be a few more, maybe another 6) and about ten baby Briggs. I also just discovered today that the ghost shrimp that I had in that tank previously left me a little present... three young ghost shrimp :) I never did ANYTHING special, no salt, no infusoria, didn't use a sponge on my intake, and some how these three grew and survived. There were about 80 guppies in there to (mostly very small fry) up until a couple of days ago when I sold them. My current tank is heavily planted, and I will be moving my plants over, and changing my substrate to sand.

The 20 came with a hood, but the 15 didn't. Because it is a tall, though, my 10 gal hood will fit on it.

What would y'all do? Bigger is better, right? LOL

yes! definitely the 20. The bigger the better!! I scooped up a 29g today that i'm super excited about!!! i'm giving up a 10g to do so, but thats still 19 more gallons then i had!!
 
That is what I am thinking, lol.

On another note, I just got an email about another FREE tank, with stand/filter/hood etc... wonder what size it is? LOL
