A 55 gallon is pretty big for a baby bp, so I’d suggest to fill it up with as many hides, fake leaves, and decorations as possible. Babies need small secure homes, and a big 55 gallon tank isn’t gonna provide that. So yeah, crowd it so it doesn’t have that much open space.

Generally a 20 gallon is good for babies until they hit 2 feet or so.

55 gallons are the worst aquariums you can get because they are so narrow.

I got them from a list of measurements I have. I didn’t think it sounded right but the others that I know of are correct.

Tank Sizes

Those are pretty accurate. I’ve used them for some time now, and never found a measurement to be incorrect.

Strange the list I have I got from a very large fish tank site a long time ago. I’ll keep that list though. I don’t use tanks so I’m not sure about sizes. I have a 20L and a 29L.
