I'm a new fish owner and I just love my lil guys. i brought a second hand 90 ltr maybe 5/6 months ago and thought it would be nice etc but did nothing with it except fill it and put some pretty fish in(!!!) Thankfully I used existing substrate and filter so cycle wasn't too bad I hope. A lot died though but i now realise i didnt have very good mix of fish either!!! I feel awful now I know more and I'm determined to do better!!! Anyway this is my second attempts, my corys and my shrimp are all from my first humbled attempt but the rest have been added since.
I currently think have too many fish (I think, not sure as pet shop said was fine but since I've been reading up i have doubts...)
I have:
2 corycats
4 Molly's
4 blue platy's and 1 Orange that the guy said here you go I'll chuck this in free too (!)
6 Neon Tetra's (the very small kind)
2 shrimp
Bunch of babies (Molly's I think...) 6-8 that iv managed to count so far
I asked for only female fish as I wanted to try for some babies but not to be over run as I've heard that can happen if you're not careful.
Anyway!!!! Sorry for long post but i welcome any helpful advice ???? I've learnt a lot from here already but bear with me as I'm not good at navigating the site yet lol. If you message and I don't reply please don't be offended LOL
