Fish Kept:
I know some people are going to say you should'nt mix fish that dont belong together. What i did was i mixed fish that i liked but were small enough that they did'nt fight with each other. I know this wont work all the time but it did for me.
Corals/Plants:
I just have fake plants and i bought some feather rocks broke them up in pieces and made some caves.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Im new at this myself but all you need is patience and clean your tank a few times a month so you can have healthy fish.
