Well I am relativley new to the wonderful world of fish keeping, but what a satisfying hobby!!!!!!!
We started by getting my daughter a couple of "Goldfish" (Fantail and Black Moore) and I think that may have been a mistake! LOL
Then we took the plunge into tropicals and quite frankly I turned into a junkie! Started with a small bowl for the cw fish and then got a Aqua One AR380 (38L). Was given some very poor advice from our lfs who quite happily took my money and let me put 2 guppies, 2 platys, 2 bronze corys, 10 neons and 1 gold spot plec into the 38L after only 24hrs after setting up the tank. Needless to say we had casualties, but only 3 - 2 neons and 1 guppy. Ammonia hit the roof. But that is all sorted now and these guys now have a nice Aqua one AR620T (120L) to live in. Have been experimenting with a little breeding as you do with guppies everywhere (great food) and my corys having their first spawn yesterday.
I am already looking for the location of my next tank............
