Aquarium Advice Addict
I was in pets at home picking up some food for my fish, when a self confessed fish keeping newbie came in for some help. She had a 30litre tank, heater, lights and filter. The store worker sold her substrate and decorations, told her to fill the tank with water, add tap safe then wait 3 days. She was then informed she could fill the tank with any fish she liked. No mention of cycling, testing, the chemistry involved, stocking or many other things. I found this frustrating because a) the lady had clearly done no research and b) the pets at home worker offered very limited and poor advice. I guess some fish are destined to die fairly young. What do you guys think?
