Hi,
Between 60 x 24 x 24 and 72 x 24 x 20 (both are about 150g), which would be the better tank for discus?
Thank you :D

This is really a personal preference question. I would prefer the 60 x 24 x 24. I love the 24 inch height and width.

I would prefer 6 feet long over 5 feet.It gives them more horizontal swimming room and a little more elbow room for territory. Either tank would be welcome here though if it was free.:)Quote:

I would do the 6 footer, more surface area for better gas exchange.
I would go 6 foot also.
Thank you all for replies :D
It's a hard decision since both 6 footer and 24" height have their own benefit......
(Would be a bit funny if I ended up with 72x24x24.)
Cyrus,
If we are going to dream let’s go for a 96 X 24 X 24. That makes a really nice statement!

A 180 is a great size tank. I had one as my first large tank and loved it.Quote:
