Description:
This was a 5 gallon "kit tank". First thing I did was yeet the interior filter and light. I cut the lid to fit a clear Pulaco hob, light is by Ming Dak. FYI: light still isn't working well for plants. Going to upgrade soon. I may yeet the whole lid. Aqueon preset flat heater keeps the temp at a steady 77F. Substrate is Fluval stratum. Hardscape is mopani and stone. A not so noticeable feature of my scape is the wood and stone arch underneath makes a great hiding cave! I do a 30% water change every Monday right after I watch Fishtank Review by Fish For Thought. (Lol!)

Research, research, research! Don't rush to buy your fish. Take it slow and keep it zen, and REALLY let your tank cycle and age.

About Yourself:
25 years ago I tried keeping fish... 2 goldfish in a 2 gallon bowl, barf gravel, neon plastic plants, no filter.... It ended in heartbreak. Now I'm back, and this is my first tank. I'm so happy to have such a biological tank!
