keep it simple, keep it clean, and keep it under-populated. a busy tank is fun to watch, but only when your not elbow deep vacuuming it due to the additional waste. if you set it up right you can maintain a wonderful balance and only clean the tank filter once every several months, and rarely need to clean the gravel.

Setting up a new aquarium is an exercise in restraint that many hobbyists, both beginners and seasoned veterans, find difficult to master.
For decades, the gold standard of the home aquarium was a pristine, crystal-clear box of water, often decorated with neon gravel and plastic plants that bore little resemblance to the wild.
Bringing a slice of the underwater world into your home is a rewarding experience, but as the hobby grows, so does our responsibility to ensure that our passion doesn’t come at the expense of the environments we admire.
