I was thinking of getting a 20 or 40 gallon tank with any kinds of cheap and hardy tropical fish I could find. I currently have a 10 gallon tank that I started with feeder fish(comets) and tap water a few hours after I bought it, and a few of them are still alive(rest died from ich I think). I've never had anything other than goldfish because I didn't want to pay for a heater, but I'm guessing tropical fish die more easily than goldfish do
Is there any way to avoid the 5-6 week wait(according to http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/f15/fishless-cycling-for-dummies-103339.html) by buying more hardy tropical fish?
Thanks
