Hi all,
I am a new member on here. I am 26yrs old and live in Oxford, UK. Grew up with a fish tank in the house, since I moved out of my parents house thought I better go and buy one too!
I have a Juwel Reckord 70 (15gallon) freshwater planted tank. Fishes: 5 zebra danios, 4 clown loaches, and an [acronym:f9425567e3="Siamese Algae Eater"]SAE[/acronym:f9425567e3] (a REAL pink flying fox). Planted up with ferny things and amazonian swords and some other little plants at the front that I cannot remember the names of

!
I am hoping to get new ideas and help to sort out the problems of a new fish tank.

That's quite a lot of large fish for that size of a tank. Clown loaches can reach 12" if they grow old enough. For the most part they get 6-8" in a tank. I don't recall how large the [acronym:c6f4bceced="Siamese Algae Eater"]SAE[/acronym:c6f4bceced] gets, but it may be a fish that doesn't belong in that tank.
