Trish -- I have a 20 gallon right now, with a strip light , some plants, an aquafilter, and a sand over soil substrate. It's current inhabitants are 10 jewel cichlids, fry but the largest are now almost 1 1/2", so they are well on their way to becoming juvenile delinquents, I mean, pairing up for breeding. You would be doing me a favor to take it.
