Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Good morning all...
I've been doing a lot of reading and research for the past few weeks, and I'm ready to start putting together a list of aquarium accessories that I want to buy. However, my biggest problem so far has been trying to decide on an aquarium size. In most of my reading, the rule of thumb seems to be "the bigger, the better" for a beginner, mostly because a change in water quality is apparently easier to control in a larger environment. does this seem to be an accurate statement? for those of you who did start with a large tank, did you run into any problems that made you wish you had started smaller?
My thinking right now is that I will get a tank no smaller than 55 gal, with a maximum size of around 120 gal.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!!!
