...with just a 10g tank?

I set up the 29g this weekend and put my 4 danios, 5 pygmy cories and 5 shrimp from the 10g into it. Seeing them swim, chase, and play in all that space made me feel like a real a-hole for keeping the in the 10g.

Much like overfeeding I think you never realize what overstocked is until you are understocked.
 
Very true!
So what's next? 40,55,75?:D
 
300? :)

2000 pond?

No more tanks until my fiance and I get a place together. Right now I have a 29g, 10g, and the 8g hex in my bedroom! Its pretty crowded.

We're moving in a couple of months so maybe in the new place we'll go for a 75. More than likely I'll wait a year or so until we buy a house. That way I won't have to move a huge tank :D
 
I'm really happy for you Tomm, I have an 11 gal, and i crave badly for a large tank, but i live with my parent,and even tough there's room in the house, they don't really like the ""water mess" stuff .and in my room I could only fit a small tank.Good luck, and enjoy it.

A week after I bought and stocked my 10g I felt like an idiot for going with a 10 instead of the 20 which only has a slightly larger footprint. :o

Show the folks how neat and clean you can keep things and talk them into the bigger tank gradually:D
