tanks below 30 gallon are mean

[Hans]

i agree, that you can fool some fish into thinking its not in a tank if the tank is big enuf compared to the size of the fish, like some barbs in a 30 gallon, im sure they dont mind, but come on people, putting a few fish in a 5 gallon, thats like puttin a monkey in a closet for all its life, when it should be outside living in trees eating fruit. just my 2 dollars.. :OT:

I completely agree with you hans, anything under 30 gallons should be banned and not allowed to be sold. I fail to see how the companies actually make money off of them. The cost of the tank is barely the cost of the glass.

I understand about SMALL tanks, but I've got a 20g with a dwarf cory, neons, 3 platy fry and 4 1/2 grown kuhlis, and they seem very happy to be there.

Not true. The last tank I bought (about 2 years ago) was a 10G. I put a school of pacu in it and one of those plecos, all from Wal-Mart. The guy told me these fish get big, but wouldn't in my tank. He was right! They lived happily for over a year, until they started getting sick and looking kinda deformed. :sad They started attacking each other. They all died mysteriously, but oh well. Now I have more room for some more Oscars! :dance

im hoping this ENTIRE post is a joke, right? seriously, a betta in a 10g is in heaven. mine is. so is one in a 5g... some bumblebee gobies and some mollies in a 10g would be ok, too.
