My dad, had 3 mollies in a 29 gallon tank setup.
He decided to put them in a 10 gallon...he said they've lived together for years and he thought they'd get along...LoL. I was hysterical. Anywho he knew I loved fish keeping so he asked me if i wanted his 29 gallon and stand hood lights..and filter.

It is in very good condition last time i seen it except its very very GREEN. It was OVERLOADED with algae growth. and he never cleaned it...so that's first.

Obviously, I am going to do this slowly ... I have to clean it so bad and then get the decor....

SOOOOO, to the point....

No clue what to do with this tank...29 gallons of freedom...lol.

SO im leaving it up to you...tell me what to do with the tank...ANYTHING but mollies, platys, guppies...those are not an option for this tank...we have cichlids and goldfish...the goldfish wouldnt fit anyways...and we have 2 frog tanks and then the mollie type deal tank...

I want all the jip...decor, fish filter recommendations..im partial to the marineland brand myself...

cant wait to hear what everyone thinks...!! everyone has such WONDERFUL tanks i think by making it yours...it will look amazing...

thanks!!

I have a planted ten gallon neon tetra tank and it is doing very well and I like the look of the neons very much.

My point is a planted neon tetra tank looks very nice.
