Hello everyone,

I just bought a brand new 16 gallon tank for my dad's birthday, as he has always wanted to keep some fish.

Our plan is to set it up, cycle the water, and then put some Zebra Danios in it.

Thought I'd sign up here, so that I can learn from others and make sure that my dad's fish are as happy and as healthy as possible!

Nice to have you, i would love to keep on going with your project since i believe i can help.

Danios Zebras are super easy to care and you can even add rasboras or catfish if you have a filter and a heater (zebras need btwn 75F-78).

If you planning to do a low tech or high tech tank, let us from the forum to know so we can give you even more information and advices/suggestions.

Thank you!

So, our next step is to find a suitable substrate for the zebra danios. What would you guys recommend? I made a more detailed post here.
