Hello,
I'm new to the forums and fish tanks. I have family members in the business and SW friends most likely know him. I always wanted a tank after seeing them in his house, store, etc. I want to start out with a fresh water tank since I don't have alot of money at this time. ( College kind of sucks at time ) My cousin moved to Canada and I got his fish tank; therefore, I now have a 55 gallon fish tank ready to go! I'm having some problems in choosing fish. I see some aggressive ones such as Spotted Puffer, Discus, Cichlid. I also like the Boesemani Rainbow alot which are peaceful ( More of the blue tinted ones ). I'm so lost what to do. Maybe someone can suggest some readings or some advice. I don't know what temperament to go with. I want the one that will give me the most colorful and options to add fish later on. With Aggressive from my understanding can be mix with some semi-aggressive fish. If that is the case can I open myself up to more fish to pick from later on if I wanted to add? If you and any help please let me know I'm going crazy here trying to figure it out. My hold up is the Boesemani Rainbow Fish
