I have been doing my research for around a week now, and have been looking foward to gettin a tank for years now. I have three main concerns besides the money that are holding me back for right now. they are
1: I am getting married in 6 months and will be going on my honeymoon for 2 1/2 weeks. Closest family is 3 hours away, and just moved to area so dont have any friends as of now that i can trust to come into my house and look after them. Will petstores board fish while im gone. Do you think its wise to wait until after this? can i start i cycle right before i leave so i wont have to worry about fish and skip the whole waiting time for the cycle to finish.
2: I will probably be moving within the next two years, most likely not locally. I realize i may have to get rid of fish, but will the liverock survive for a couple of days while i move? Has anybody think moving is a big concern at this point.
3: i have a cat that just seems to go crazy for my lizards, everytime i feed them hes all over the tank trying to swat the crickets (you think after three years he would realize he cant get them through the glass). He also sits on top of his cage and thats where my concern with the fish tank is, mainly hair or himself falling into the tank.
let me know what you guys and gals think.. I was originally planing to start within the next month or two. a 45 gallon setup.
