20 gallon tank question

[gwand]

It seems that most 20 gallon tanks are 24 inches in length. Anyone know a brand that sells longer tanks?

20 gallon “high” tanks are 24”x12”x16”. if you got a 20 gallon long tank, the dimensions are 30”x12”x12”, which holds the same amount of liquid, it’s just a longer tank.

if you’re from the US, petco and petsmart sells them. when i used to have my 20g long, they were Aqueon brand i believe.

I found my 20 gallon long. It will be perfect for my next nano tank.

That's also the best size of a tank if you want to breed Apistogramma or Pelvicachromis dwarf Cichlids.

Glad you got sorted nice dimensions! If you wanted any other options though check out UNS branded tanks some really interesting shapes and dimensions.

I feel the word nano should only apply to really small tanks, like under 15 gallons. Then above that should be known as REGULAR size until you get to like 50 gallons. Then 50 gallons is MEDIUM size. Then you get to 150 gallons and it's a BIG/LARGE size tank.

In my case, the word nano refers to the fish size. All of the fish that are going into this tank will be between .5 and .75 inches as adults.

I’m thinking of CPDs, dwarf emerald rasbora and pygmy corys, a dozen of each in a lushly planted tank.

Can anyone recommend a brand of black sand substrate that will not injure bottom dwellers? Thanks.

Has anyone shipped fish from Arizona Aquatic Gardens? If so, were you satisfied?
