Advice:
Patience. Do not fully stock a new tank, collect your fish. Do research on the fish you buy, or are thinking of buying. Check whether they are community, semi-aggressive, aggressive, cichlid etc. to minimize injury or death. Remember that your fish are going to grow, so make sure you have an appropriate sized aquarium for when they grow up. Fish can live for over a decade if properly taken care of. Create variation in your fishes diet. There are many types of food (flake, dried, live, frozen). When you decorate your tank do some research on where your fish came from. Do they prefer tall plants? no plants? rocks? sand? Check PH and ammonia levels once a week or more. Temperature is also important, keep an eye on it. My fish all prefer temperatures of 78-80 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not hesitate to ask your local tropical store for advice, the internet is also very helpful when you have a specific question. It is ultimately all about making your fish as comfortable and as happy as they can be, while still letting your creativity show through. Have fun, get interested and love your pets.

About Yourself:
I had my first tank (10 gal) when I was a teenager until it sprung a leak. Returned to the hobby recently and have had to relearn everything but my fish are happier for it. Presently I am a caregiver also of my little fish.
Fish Kept:
Red eyed balloon tetras, a beta, and soon an angel fish.
Corals/Plants:
plastic plants in the 20 gallon and silk plants for the 5 gallon beta tank.
Tank Size:
25 gallons
Advice:
Don't start very small, at least 10 gal, and know the nitrogen cycle. Research, research, research before you bring the fishies home.

About Yourself:
future fresh and marine biologist :p im like a normal fish guy, started with a goldfish from the fair! but not like any other toddler, my obsession and studies grew faster and stronger and had my first danios, minnows, and barbs by the age of five hehehe!!!
Fish Kept:
2x yellow labs
1x red zebra
1x blue red top ice
1x powder blue cichlid
1x featherfin synodonothis
1x red shoulder peacock
3x assorted marble peacocks
1x zebra obicluenze
Corals/Plants:
1x unknown name
1x dwarf saggrita
1x java fern
Tank Size:
30 gallons
Advice:
only keep african cichlids with other african cichlids, and make sure, to aviod fighting and overall agression, to stock your fish quite highly, and 1 inch per gallon...one last thing, make the fishes overall matured size equall, if you have small cichlids with a eye biter or something as big as that, it WILL eat them or at least damage them seriously.
