Hi everyone,
I just started into Aquariums Nov1 2006 and don't know much about it at all. Anyway, I've started a reef tank and know lots about SW... but I don't know anything about FW.
I'm looking for something that's fairly low maintenace (my main concern will be my 150g reef tank) so I'm thinking it will probably be a peaceful community tank.
The tank is 4x2x2 and the lighting is 260W PC dual daylight and dual actinic. I think actinic is only for SW so I may need to switch that?
I was wondering what sort of filter I should get? I had a Fluval Fx5 but it was horrible with microbubbles. I'd like something really reliable that can handle 120g with little/no maintenance.
I also wondered what type of fish/plants (if plants make things easier) I could keep. I was thinking small neon tetras.. and i don't really know any others!
My roommate did have a clownfish and ropefish/eel at one point which we enjoyed. The clwonfish was annoying to feed though.
Would ropefish be easy to keep? I also like those litle catfish type things that are white/back spotted.
