OK Folks I'm at a point where I need some advise...I have a 29 gallon as most of you know that is for my guppies, and of course my 55 gallon for my goldie...

Now, my 29 gallon for quite sometime seemed to have balanced itself, and I suppose the adults were eating fry enough to off balance any great population jumps...Well, unfortunately (maybe) that time has ended...

The population has been jumping and has gotten or is getting our of hand quickly...

So here are my choices:

1. I can bag up some adults/almost adults, and take them down to the lfs and get some fishy credit, which is always useful...but sometimes depressing, because I find that the tank looks somewhat empty after I do this....:%)

2. I can invest in yet another tank . I'm thinking another 55 gallon, and transfer the adults, and teens into it...and well, let life do what life does with live breeders in a larger tank...

So give me your advise, what would ya'll do? I've got room for a 55 in the living room (though my current boyfriend might break down laughing or screaming next time he comes over and sees it) but hey it's my house, right? Or should I cowboy up and go sell some off?

You should get rid of the goldfish and put the adults and keep the babies in the 29. Then you should get more fish in the 55 with the adults
