Im not in that situation but was just trying to start up a subject to talk about.

For me I would keep my 40B set up with my hairy puffer. When I first got him my wife thought it was ugly and lacked any color. Now Scruffy has won her heart with his huge personality. While not as interactive as Porkchop my Pearsei, this guy has a huge personality wrapped up in a little package.

What would you do?

I'd keep my 48x15x20. And I'd stock it with my female red isletas

But I also like my 125 with biggie smalls

My 125gal American cichlid tank. It's a main attraction in my house. Main floor near nook area and kitchen and across family room in our view. Or as you walk in through formal dining room and formal living room, first you see that attracts your eyes. Then people approach the tank. All the attention is in front of them cause most of buggers are begging for food. But of course I tell people they are on a feeding schedule.

I figure if I had to downsize it would be because something bad happened, and I thought my 210g would be the one to go. Thats why I thought I would end up with my 40B.

Last year when the business I worked for was closing its doors i had bought an in case tank. I thought I would want to stay in the hobby but may have to sell the big tank so I bought my 72g bowfront. Work came again soon after so no need to sell anything and ended up with another tank at that point.

It's a toss up between my 55 gallon community tank, and the 36 bowfront fireplace tank... I'd say I'd end up keeping the 55 gallon community tank. It was my first tank I did by myself, ever since I moved here to Bremerton.

I'd finish building my 125 and stock it with 5-7 red tailed sharks; see if I can figure out how to breed them without hormones. Otherwise id stick to my 55 and fully stock it (finally)
