    How many fish can a 20g tank hold?

    My best advice would be to search ads, garage sales, moving sales, friends garages etc. for a larger used tank. I paid $50 for my 55 gallon, $150 for my 75 gallon SW, and $70 for my 75 gallon Tanganyikan tank. The two 75's came with stands, gravel, lighting, all kinds of goodies. In the long...
