Hi guys need your advice that’s why I joined a group. Little about myself so you know who you are dealing with, I’m 71 years young and disabled as in can’t walk unaided and have to use a mobility scooter to get around. Not much energy but I’m still hanging in there lol. As I spend a lot of my time living in one room and got everything I need within reach I have been thinking for a long time about buying an aquarium. My Son took me to an under water sealife centre few months back and I was overwhelmed by the amount of different species of fish etc. My Son and I went to a aquatic Centre this morning intending to purchase a aquarium so I could start this new adventure but was soon felt stressed out by the number of different sizes, types, prices of the tanks that we saw as soon as we entered the shop. After looking around for a 1 1/2 hours and with no help from the shop keepers themselves we decided to leave and search more about my new buddies. My questions and help I’m looking for guys is WHERE DO I START.
I would like to purchase a tank around 60 litres in size so I can have around 20 tiny fish that would all live together happily, I also need to have a near as much as possible a maintenance free as possible due to my health issues. Can I purchase a filter that will keep the water condition down to the minimum so I don’t need to change more than once a month. I have a budget of around £600 just to buy the essentials, knowing that in a month time I will be spending around £200 for the little guys. Any advice from you guys would be greatly appreciated thanks x
