Aquarium Advice Newbie
Greetings from the Caribbean!
My impulsiveness made me buy an aquarium and so far I've been having fun with it! I've been lurking a few forums for weeks and decided on AA since I really like how it is so far. Been doing lots of research and it's quite overwhelming. Of course, seeing as how impulse got the best of me, I managed to mess up already!
I bought a 5 gallon tank and bought 3 goldfish (2 Orandas and a Shubunkin). I know they probably feel like sardines in a can, but i'm buying a 20 gallon as soon as I can get the funds and get it cycled. 'Till then, I wanna make their life decent (or at least less miserable!). Any tips on this? I bought the API freshwater test kit since strips made me wanna pull my hair out (before test: unsafe ammonia level, after 50% water change and general tank cleanup: unsafe level. ) if anyone wants to know parameters. Thanks!
