Thanks for the replies so far. I'd love to go the 5 gallon route since it costs the same as the 3 gallon, but if the tank and hood dimensions given are correct, it is to tall to fit on the dining area countertop where we plan on putting it. I only have about 14.5 inches of height to work with.
Jwoo, can you give me some more details on your tank? Lighting , filters, etc a pic or two would be sweet as well. By your phrase "hardest to keep looking good" do you mean you had no issues keeping livestock just hair algae issues?
