Our in-depth look

Who it's for

Beginners setting up a first tropical community tank. More water means more stable conditions than a small nano tank.

Who should skip it

Anyone wanting a planted tank with strong lighting — you'll want to upgrade the light.

Tips

Questions owners ask

How long before I can add fish?

After the tank has cycled — usually 4–6 weeks without a bottled-bacteria product.

How many fish can go in 20 gallons?

It depends on species and adult size; stock slowly and research each fish.
