What should I do with it?

Today I was at the LFS and purchased a 37 gallon tank. I have no set plans for this tank I just like the size and shape of it, and it was on sale. What should I do with this tank? Im not sure if I want another SW tank, or even if I want another FW tank. I thought about a nice Frog tank, but I have no idea how to keep frogs. Im just looking for some more ideas. Thanks

I'm in the same boat as you, well almost. I just upgraded to a 90 but still have my 29. I don't really want to keep two tanks though.

A poison dart frog tank sounds cool to me.

I think frogs would be fun and I would assume they're pretty easy to keep. If it were me though, I think I'd do a tank for an angler or something like that that requires a tank to itself. If you decide to go that route you should be able to tie it in to your big tank pretty easily and it wouldn't really be a big hassle to maintain.

For SW you could do a mantis tank. Also could do dart frog, spider/trantula, scorpion, small lizard, ect...

I'm going to be in the same boat as well. The 125 is going up in a few weeks. WE will have that tank up along with our 20 long. That leaves the 55 left. What to do what to do?

Is it a tall, or a long? You can do a viquarium or something.

It is tall. My original plan was to set up a waterfall feature that I already had, but I did that and took it down about 15 minutes later because it wasn't really what I wanted. Then I thought about making it into a little jungle setting with a dirt floor, vines, and branches for a baby veiled chameleon.
