Patience is a virtue!
Fish Kept:
Currently I have two keyhole cichlids, two bolivian rams, two swordtails (red), 5 spotted corys, a BN pleco, an angel fish, a bamboo shrimp, three ghost shrimp, and a paradise fish.
Corals/Plants:
Two java ferns, a marimo moss ball, two amazon swords, anubias, two bronze wendths, and various other swords.
Tank Size:
40 gallons
Advice:
To have a successful aquarium you have to be very patient. Make sure you read up on the nitrogen cycle and let your tank cycle! While your tank is cycling (will be about a month) read up on the fish you plan on getting and the specific plans you have for your fish tank. Make sure you are not overstocking, your fish get along, feeding the right amount, etc.

Corals/Plants:
2 anubius plants and 2 green mondo grass plants
Tank Size:
30 gallons
Advice:
Make sure to fully cycle your new tank before spending a bunch of money on fish, the time spent cycling your tank could save you from a lot of dead fish and wasted money, i prefer a fishless cycle with a little fish food and of course my personal favorite chemical tetra brand "AquaSafe Plus"
Description:
this photo shows most of the fish however the eel is barely sticking its face out of the castle on the coral side and the sharks are hiding in the log and in the coral
