Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hello everyone! I'm a married mom of two. Not new to the aquarium hobby, but determined to get it right this time! My husband and I have tried keeping fish 3 times. The first two times were freshwater, the third was saltwater. I don't think I'm ever doing saltwater again, lol, the fish are so cool but it's SO much work and we just couldn't keep up.
I'm trying to do my homework this time and actually research before we start a new tank. We don't have our aquarium set up yet -- we ordered a bunch of supplies online, and we're waiting for those to come in so we can start setting up. One thing we're planning to do differently this time is use live plants. For some reason I always assumed that having live plants meant more work and less chance of success. I don't know where I got this impression. But now I'm excited to find plants to help make our aquarium beautiful and healthy.
Since we have a 29ish gallon tank that's a hexagon, we're planning to stick with tiny fish - guppies and maybe tetras, with a few corydoras and a small pleco.
We're fairly new to Oklahoma, just moved here last August, and I'm still getting to know people here. In the meantime I'm looking forward to developing my aquarium knowledge and meeting you fine folks.
