We are moving to Cali soon.. I had to sell our large goldfish and Oscar tanks. I am kinda fish-less and fiending now.

I did get a 10 gallon tank to take with us. Granted,the 10g tank is much-maligned, as the typical, beginner, too-small tank. (This was always my take on it; bigger is better; why cram a goldfish into a 10g tank when it needs more room; etc.) But I am thinking that in uncertain location.. in a new state, with a yet-unknown amount of (presumably limited) apartment space... it will be a good start for me.

I love saltwater tanks. Is 10g too small to go salt, do you think? If it is, I have a good idea of wht I want to make out of it; some freshwater puffers.. a neon- spotted pleco; maybe some "sharks" (iridescents perhaps..) a "pseudo" saltwater tank, if you will. With saltlike decor,maybe some un-live coral.. your thoughts?
