20 Gallon Tall-Torn between the two

Spotted_Leopard Jun 26, 2003 02:18 PM

Ok, the situation is this. I told my dad I needed a 20 gallon tank for my leo, with a screen lid, and he did everything right, except he got a tall rather than a long. It offers more than a foot of floorspace though, 18 inches or something off of the top of my head, I can't remember exactly how much. Is that enough room? Should I get a new aquarium? I am kinda torn Thanks in advance...Spotted Leopard

You can use that for one leo, but if you want two leos I'm afraid you will have to return it and get a 20 gallon long tank. It is fine for one leo though.

Thanks Cleo, that was a close one I bet my new gecko will be very happy. I'll make sure to send in pics.
