I am not with you on this one leveldrummer. I hate it when someones tank crashes because they don't do what they need to do to keep it going. I also don't like the idea of shrugging off the loss of life. When it comes to tank size, a small mistake in a small tank can cause the tank to crash where as in the larger tank the mistake will be almost unoticed. I have have a 20 gallon, 40 gallon and a 75 gallon and i will admidt that my nano is more work, but i love putting in the work. I check the parameters almost everyday. Add ro/di water everyday. I spend a lot more time with the 20 gallon then the other tanks.
