| About Yourself: |
Well, it was my wifes idea at first and I agreed and have become very interested in saltwater. She has taken classes and has worked with satwater fish for a few years. I am catching on though..I buy everything and she mantains it. |
| Advice: |
The most common beginners mistake is moving too quick and adding too much too fast! www.saltwaterfish.com you can not only buy fish but this site will tell you everything about the fish and coral and what goes with what...This is great if you are not that experienced. It is also great for the experienced because they have cheaper prices than your local fish store. Make sure you have a very thick layer of sand...otherwise your bacteria wont be as thick, layered and plentiful! |
| Fish Kept: |
Most ordered from saltwaterfish.com an excellent site for online fish ordering!
