my new 29 gallon |
| Advice: |
Do your homework and read as much as you can about the new hobby your about to start. Go to small local fish retailers for any advice... try to stay away from big chain retailers ( petsmart, petco )
the people working there dont know much about what they are talking about. In a smaller family owned fish store the employees are very smart about what they sell, the younger employees are usually going to school for marine biology. |
| Fish Kept: |
A 29 gallon I just started. It has a couple of Zebra, long finned blue and gold Dannios in it now.
Also I have a 10 gallon with a red tailed Albino Shark, a baby Angelfish, a Pepperd Cory Cat, 3 Plattys, 3 Gold Barbs, and 3 Rummynoose Tetras...
I'm going to transfer everything over to my 29 gallon when its ready! |
| Plants Kept: |
I have a wide variety of live plants and a large piece of driftwood with plant growth on it.( it looks like a tunnel) I also have a smaller piece of drift wood I tied a live plant to that will eventually take root on the wood. |

A boy can learn a lot from a dog: obedience, loyalty, and the importance of turning around three times before lying down. |
| About Yourself: |
Started keeping fish in a 29G long tank my stepfather brought home one day. Never looked back. Spent quite a lot over the years, but it's been worth it to me. |
| Advice: |
When trying to grow plants BOTH the amount of light you have and the SPECTRUM of light you have ARE KEY!!!!!! Plants need light in the red spectrum to photosynthesize!!! As well your available light spectrum will have to be specific to your plants and fish! If you have a blue fish but very low blue light from your lights the fish won't shine it's brightest! Keep them fed well, (i feed once a day every morning when i turn on the lights). Filtration and water quality are very very very important! Relax, have patience, enjoy the tank. My tank is several years old and doesn't even look as good as I want it but you can't rush these things |

| Advice: |
Don't buy too many fish until your tank is stable. Angel fish grow big :) oh and snails get out of control very very quickly. |
| Fish Kept: |
3 x Angels, 3 x Darts, a small Yabbie I rescued from a pet shop and a few other things. The Yabbie likes to re-arrange things in my tank. |
| Plants Kept: |
