From standard 3 footer to 4 footers.
Easilt get away with a 2 footer, but must do daily water changes on a tank that size!
The thing i notice with my pairs in 4 footers is they keep on growing very well!
while the pairs in 3 footers slow down on the growth.
Sponge in all my tanks, get washed every monday in warm water.
Just remember one thing, it will be cheaper to keep a 2 foot breeding tank heated than a 4 foot tank!
HTH Kiddo!

Ryan, question for you.
Are you making the cube tanks your self or are you buying them?
if so how much?
I am thinking of getting 1/2 dozen cube tanks for breeding purposes.
Cheers,
Ben

standard 4 foot tank with a glass divider in the middle,worked well when i was breeding Discus 8 years ago.Will do the same when my Discus pair off.
Had the tank built with a glass divider.Can keep 2 breeing pairs in 1 tank that way =)

im thinking 3ft by 2ft by 2ft would be the way for me to go. i was originally thinking 2 cubed but that bit of extra room would be handy.
