Aquarium Advice Regular
I currently have a 29 gallon, my first tank since I was a kid. Had a bit of a learning curve with it, petsmart didn't mention anything about that whole cycling thing ( pretty important) while I was setting it up....the tank was a gift from my soon to be fiancé parents. That was awhile ago. Now it's up and running very smoothly and I love the hobby. It's stocked with:
8 neon tetras
1 peal gourami (m)
1 opaline gourami (f)
1 (clown pleco)
5 ghost shrimp
And 1 moly that stuck it out during me learning to cycle the tank....he's a trooper.
Anyway, my question to this forum is when I'm setting up the 55.......
LED vs fluorescent?
Canister vs HOB?
I keep the ph at 7 thanks to seachem neatrilizer...my tap is very soft and caused ph swings and I lost fish, someone recommend that (no complaints) so I use that and prime during water changes.
I wanna keep generally the same stock I guess, I'm looking for things I might be able to add, and also looking live plants that are easy to care for.
Thanks for reading,
All replies I thank in advance
