    Hi there

    What size tank do you currently have? What is the filtration like? These can help in your decision.

    Would you like to try out a planted tank? Or maybe would you like to attempt to breed a certain fish? Do you want lots of fish or a few, big, showy ones? Your tank is full of possibilities!

    Regards

    @sick -lid - If you can afford to upgrade go bigger now. I've had my 100l for about a month and a half and I want more tank. My tank is a planted community tank with cory's, gouramis, gbr's, guppies, harlequins and cardinals.

    I'm in the process of upgrading to a 4ft (hopefully 350l) at the moment to give me more stocking options as far as plants and fish. I like the community options as there are so many colourful and interesting fish out there. I also really like planted tanks. How long have you had malawis for? Why not do something different for awhile.

    A canister filter is good enough for a 4ft tank
