Hello! I had fish a LONG time ago, but have not for years now. I would like to start up a new tank, but am essentialy doing if from scratch.
Here is my data, as per the Sticky:
* 25 gallon tank
* Planning on using a Bio-Wheel
* Medium sized smooth gravel as a substrate
* Not sure Exactly, but i know the water in our area has a naturaly high PH. Will get this tested later
* I like fish of all kinds, but mostly:
- Catfish (especialy fancy ones like Angel Catfish, but I HATE Plecos)
- Bumblebee Gobies (I hear these fish like hard water?)
- Crabs, shrimp, and crayfish
- Koli Loaches
- Congo Tetras
- African Butterfly fish
I am planning to have a few live plants to help out the BioWheel. Any recomendations of easy to grow plants and lighting would be appreciated. Someone told me that watter ferns are eeasy to grow, and dont need as much light? Thanks!
