    I'd say not how many you can fit, but how many can comfortably live in there. :O
    4-5 1-2 inch clowns should do. Just make sure there's a lot of water flow.
    that seems like a lot
    if I get three, I'd have four altogether
    would that keep them happy?
    and then I could have banana plants

    A 33 long has about the dimensions of a 55 gallon minus the height. 4-5 more would do well in their until they'd all need a 75 in about... I dunno, 3-5 more years.

    Re: Aquarium Fish!

    a 75G long must be what you're talking about
    nice dimensions
    there's also a 100G wide
    wonder where I could put something that size
    oh my - I'm already planning this thing
    I do want to think ahead

    We have a few fish. Megan has a beautiful bright blue betta in her room, and I have a (very) small tank with neon tetras and a corydora. I had a pretty little angelfish in there but lost her recently. Still have to decide what to replace her with!

    My advise is get the cory a friend. Believe it or not cories are schooling fish.

    Really? I had no idea.......
    Thanks, I'll definitely do that, then we'll have two little "Whiskers" bouncing around the tank. They really are cute and fun to watch!

    My cory just lost his buddy of the last 3 or so years... I need to get out and get him a new bud. He looks so forlorn!!
