Description:
My tank is a small, 11 litre water home 3, plastic fishtank. I'm not allowed a bigger tank or a tropical tank as 'It puts the electric bills up.' Being 17 and living at home begging for a bigger tank just doesn't work so i gave up and tryed to make the most of my 11 litre Waterhome 3. I'v put a Fluval 1 in as the trickle system filter was smelling bad and i hated it - i always stick by my Fluval's! Normal 15W light that came with tank and a small air pump pumping out a line of bubbles along the back of the tank. Plastic plants, loads of plain gravel, small cobbles and an ornamental driftwood makes my tank look lovely for a small, rather restricted basic goldfish tank.
Advice:
I'm just starting out and love fish so the only advice I can dish out it PATIENCE REALLY IS A VIRTUE! Nitrite and ammonia really do have to be non existant for a healthy tank! Pump in that Nutrafin Cycle and wait!
Fish Kept:
10 Small Spotted Coldwater Plecs
2 Boggle Eyed Fantails
1 Boggle Eyed Blackmoor
10 Clawed Dwarf Frogs
1 Cardinal Tetra - Hides in Plants For Obvious Reasons - Poor Git.
Corals/Plants:
Plastic! Can't die but gets plastered in algae.
Tank Size:
3 gallons
About Yourself:
I work in a petshop and the more I learnt about fish, the more i wanted them! When i finally wormed my way into the crappy little 11 litre plasic tank that i have now, i tryed my hardest to make it as beautiful as all of yours.

Natural aquariums are often described as “set it and forget it,” but the truth is calmer and more practical: you trade constant cleaning for thoughtful setup, steady habits, and time.
Creating a thriving community aquarium is one of the most rewarding aspects of the fish-keeping hobby, but it requires much more than simply picking out the most colorful fish at the local pet store.
Setting up a new aquarium is one of the most exciting moments in the fishkeeping hobby—but it’s also where most beginners unintentionally make mistakes that lead to stressed fish, disease outbreaks, or early losses.
