Advice:
Less is more.
Be patient.
What works well for others will not always work for you so experiment and have fun.
Most important is don't give up, you will have probs but once sorted you will have the tank you wanted. It is worth the effort.
There are no short cuts.
Fish Kept:
Cherry, Tiger, Ammano, Rudolf, Cambodian, and cross breed shrimp. Otocinclus. Siam flying fox, Dwarf,Pigmy, and Sterbie Corydoras, Dwarf Chain Loach and Red Whip tailed catfish make up the cleaning crew just adding some Rainbows as the main fish at 2 per week now. still to pick a small shoaling fish. Any suggestions would be nice?

For decades, freshwater aquarium salt has been hailed as a staple remedy in the fishkeeping community, often passed down from experienced hobbyists as a universal cure-all for sick, stressed, or newly acquired fish.
