Awesome information! Thank you.If that's the size you want, there's nothing foolish about buying it. If you have every intention of upgrading in a year or so though, you'll find that not much of the equipment you buy for a 20 gal will work for a 65 - 75 -90g tank. You may end up spending a lot of money twice to get what you wanted in the first place. That said, a 20g would make a great hospital or quarantine tank for a setup of that size.
I've enjoyed my 65, but wish I'd started just a bit bigger. That size range you see the results of adjustments that you make within hours to days. Likewise, you can screw up on something and usually have a good day or three to catch that you've made a mistake. Huge tanks (I'd assume) take a lot longer to give you feedback. Smaller ones give instant feedback, but also much less time to notice you've gone awry before hitting critical levels of this or that.
