Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hi,
my daughter just bought a 35gallon rectangle aquarium with a base and that's all we have right now.
I kept and bred freshwater fish for many years and also had a tropical fish shop (freshwater), so I have a fishy background
The family want marines and I did have them successfully for a couple of years but that was 25 years ago, so memories have faded.
What I'd really appreciate is a list that I can take down to my local store so that I can order everything.
I seem to remember that I started off with a couple of damsels but that seems frowned upon now.
Aquarium will be for maybe 8 fish similar to:
Yellow tang
Blue/Green Chromis
Ocellaris Clownfish
but I'm 100% open to advice.
If you have time and inclination then please make the list as complete as possible.
Like how much sand or gravel; living rock (some living and some regular ?) ; lights etc.
I will most likely mix a salt solution.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Michael
