jeremai Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I don't understand. You have to set up a new tank, but it doesn't really matter when. Also, if you have an existing tank, you can just transfer everything into a new tank and be ok. Size also doesn't matter, ie I could plumb a 5.5g into my 120g and be fine. We have so many failed contests now that the word 'contest' is as ubiquitous in thread titles as 'random' is. Bah. Link to comment
