Hello I'm Ali,, Decided to get back into fish while recovering from Cancer fighting hip surgery, Ill be home for a few years so Fish will be my therapy.


Just bought a 85 gallon tank with holes in the bottom,,and I dont know where to start.. I need help fast.
 
The tank probably was built or used for an undergravel filter. Water flows down through the gravel into these intake holes and then pumped back in through another hole with a standpipe.You can reconstruct this or you can seal the holes and use another system of filtration. Meanwhile, begin reading information on cycling a tank. Go here Tips for Cycling Your New Aquarium - The First Tank Guide - Getting Your Fish Tank Up and Running with Minimal Headaches for example. And be patient. You can make mistakes if you are in a hurry to set up a tank.
