Hi guys new to the site today. I'm in the middle of a remodel and have deceided to add a wall in my living room and put a freshwater tank in it. It will be viewable from both sides. I'm a carpenter by trade so I have the skills for the build.
What I'll need help with is the tank itself. I've had a few in the past, but from reading the threads posted here. I guess I never knew there was so much more involved than just adding water and fish. I'm leaning towards a 55 gallon.
Can I get some advice on the rest of what I'll need eg: pump, heater, filter, lights etc...I would like to keep it economical. Not the absolute best but not junk either. I understand that some things are just worth the money period. but since I'm in start up mode I'd like to go slow.
I''l post pics of my build when it's complete. I look forward to your help.
Thank's Mike
