this tank is 2 years old, it went under many changes until i have decided to turn it into a cichlid tank. I used limestone rocks from a beach in Ayia Napa for those of you who know cyprus. The plants are plastic as I do not have the time to keep live plants. The gravel is also from a beach and the background is from exo terra and it's really beautiful for this aquarium. I hope my cichlids are happy! |

50 Gallon Freshwater Tank |
| About Yourself: |
I started with one fish in a 2 gallon tank. A week later I ended up with a 50 gallon tank and found myself making new addition and adjustments every other day. I love coming home and being able to look at my fish tank as I whine down after a long day. I look forward to acquiring different kind of fish as I am totally hooked with this hobby. |
| Advice: |
Take Your Time And Do Your Research and be prepared to spend some money. As soon as you think your done adding to your tank, you find yourself at your local fish store again. So take your time and you will eventually get your tank to look the way you want. Like the old saying goes, "Slow and steady wins the race". |

You can't put that fish with them. LOL |
| About Yourself: |
Wanted a tank,
Got one and learned
Now love it and love doing it.
Fish store owners need to sell stuff to you no matter what happens to you or your fish. And 3K makes them forget your name. |
| Advice: |
When starting a new tank, set it up with water and turn it on and let it run for at least 8 weeks and add a very small amount of fish food every other week.

Then buy fish. |
