I'd get an AquaOne360 all in one tank (otherwise you pay for tank + stand + light + filter + hood), and probably some spiffy plants and some small colourful schooling fish or maybe killies.

well, i lie. *I* would get some oddball thing, like a pair of brown backed crabs, or a 2' setup with mudskippers.

I wouldn't bother with a new tank I don't think, I'd use it to set up one of my empty tanks. Probably get my 20 gallon up again, plant it really nicely (properly from the start!) then some rams and rummy-noses, or maybe some praecox rainbowfish.

Hmm... I'd get like... a few small-ish tanks, maybe in the ten gallon range, then get as many different types of bettas as I could. You know, a tank for imbellis, a tank for simplex, one for coccina... all the fun wildtypes that I want to keep.

I'd want the tanks fairly densely planted and get a pair or trio of each type. Of course, how much I spend on each setup would dictate how many types of fish I could get. Would be fun to study the different species.
