Make sure you cycle your tank properly before adding your fish, and never overfeed them, fish wil just eat and eat.. then you have to clean up the mess....

Set up the tank 1st then add fish after cycling.
Quarantining fish and plants for 3 wks to a month is something I reccomend

We started with a 55g with goldfish when I was 20. A few years ago we got a Betta, and we were gone from their. We then started with Cichlids over 2 months ago. We purchased a 125 last week, and are slowly setting it up. I have 2 Betta's each in their own 5g tank, a 20 Gallon with Gil the guppy, and the 46 with 8 cichlids.
I work for State Farm in insurance sales, and I cannot wait until 5pm to go home and see MY BOYS ; D

About Yourself:
When I was just a kid my mom and dad opened an aquarium shop and I learned so much about fresh and salt water care and have always enjoyed aquariums. I am in the ac/heating field and in the summer when I am so busy it is hard to devote as much time as I would like to working with my tank but it seems like I always find time someway or another.
Fish Kept:
This is a community tank which has Silver Dollars. Platys, 23 Neons, 2 Plecos, 2 Cory Cats, 2 Dalmation Mollys and 2 Black Mollys and several Platy and Molly fry.
Corals/Plants:
Life like artificial plants with driftwood, Texas holy rock, river rocks and petrified wood rock to make a very natural environment.
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
Just do a lot of reading and ask a lot of questions and you'll develop your own ideas and what works best for you. It is very rewarding and very enjoyable.
