About Yourself:
I got into fishkeeping due to my gf who has previously had tropical fish...Tbh I wasn't that keen on having them at the start & I didnt know nothing about keeping fish, but after alot of research we now have our tank set up now, I would say to anybody thinking about getting fish is to STOP THINKING & GET SOME!!!!!
Fish Kept:
2 Mollies (Female pregnant again!!!)6 Neon Tetra, 3 Plattie's, 1 Yellow gourami, 3 Fancie tailed Guppies & a Bristle nosed Pleco....2 Apple snails & babies & numerous Trumpet snails....Soon to be getting a colony of Red Cherry Shrimp aswell because they look cool & will make a good addition to my clean-up crew.
Corals/Plants:
Anubis, cant remember the other plants name. Will be adding some Java Fern soon.
Tank Size:
16 gallons
Advice:
1st of all do lot of research...When you get your tank let it cycle properly....Patience is a virtue!!!! Regular water changes 15-20% weekly. Regular water tests is also advisable aswell....You can test your water with 1 of the various test kits currently on the market, i personally use the test strips made by API. Never overstock your fishtank (less is more) it increases the chance of diease & it can stress your fish & eventually lead to death, your fish will thank you for the swimming space anyway....NEVER overfeed your fish!!! Work out how much they eat & only put in as much as they can eat in 5-10 mins....Good house keeping is is a must when keeping fish.

Corals/Plants:

Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Let your water sit when you set it up. A new tank should sit a week and ahalf at the least. When you first get fish in a new tank get some thing cheap like danios. If the tank gets white and cloudy its because the ammoina is coming out and that tank is cycling dont add any thing it will clear up. Use brand new rock in the new tank. When setting up tank decor dont put to many things in in there to cluttle it up.
