My fish eat any plants I try to put in my tank.

About Yourself:
Me and my boyfriend Dave love our fishies :P Dave in particular. He is literally obsessed with them. He cares about them more than me lol We started becoming interested in fish after just popping into our fish shop in town. We thought they were really pretty so we decided to get some. At the time we didnt think it would be so complex keeping them but we soon learned and the more we learned about keeping fish the more we enjoyed it. And now we're both little fish freaks :P Beware, this hobby is addictive.
Fish Kept:
We have kept many species of fish. Not all of them are still alive. Be careful when choosing your fish, they don't all get on like a house on fire.
Corals/Plants:
We used to have some live plants but now we've got good old artificial ones again. They're sexier.
Advice:
Always make sure your water quality is good. This is the first thing to test in any signs of trouble. Usually water quality is the route cause of any problems. ooh and don't over feed them because this can also cause problems, and don't overstock your tank with too many fishes. Happy Fishkeeping! :)

"I will make you fishers of men"
About Yourself:
First and foremost I'm a dedicated believer and follower of Jesus Christ. Beyond that I'm a Construction Worker by day and a Web Designer by night. After a long day of hard labor there is nothing more relaxing than planting myself in front of my aquarium and shedding the stress of the day.
Fish Kept:
I have 3 different varieties of Peacock Cichlids - 1 Red Zebra Cichlid - 1 Electric Blue Cichlid - 1 Green Terror Cichlid - 1 Electric Yellow Cichlid - 1 Big Lipped Cichlid - one Albino Cichlid and 3 Cichlids whos species origin is yet to be identified.
I also have one Dinosaur Birch who my Cichlids seem to leave alone and two very small plecostomus but one of them I'm growing for another tank tht is still cycling.
Corals/Plants:
A variety of different artificial plants.
I plan to gradually replace all of my artificial plants with live ones but seen as how this tank is only a few months old I havent gotton to that point yet.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
My advice to any beginner is to start small and aim big. A larger size tank can be quite a commitment. If a beginner jumps right into a larger size tank they can easily find themselves overwhelmed by the time and effort it takes to maintain a good healty environment for their fish to thrive.
Don't sweat loosing fish, it happens to all of us no matter what the experience level.
Most importantly have fun. It's just a hobby, if it gets too serious it's time to get out.
Description:
My name is Punk and Im a Big Lipped Cichlid. I got my name because I will punk you and have been the ill fate to many an unwanted rival so stay out of my way or else.

Advice:
Make your aquarium as automated as possible
Plan your tank for mature fish size. It may be exciting to see a lot of fish in your aquarium, but the personality they will reveal when not overcrowded is much more rewarding

Tiger Oscar, Albino Oscar, Peacock bass, Jaguar cichlids, Archers, and other cichlids, not all in the same tank. We have a 55 gallon full of non-aggressive fish also. Guppies, Barbs, Red-nosed rummy.

Our Oscars and Jaguar pull up any plants and destroy them. Most of our tanks have rocks or other things that are too heavy for them to destroy.

It starts off small, then you become addicted! Next thing you know your house is full of tanks.
