Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hello,
This is my first post and would like to thank everyone in advance for any help and advice given. I owned a 10 gallon tank when i was kid but it was more of a toy than anything else, I kept it filled with guppies tadpoles and canal water. Recently(about 3 weeks ago) I was given a tank by a friend of a friend who was didn't want it anymore. It's a 30 gallon hex 24" tall and 17" across corner to corner with a penguin bio-wheel 200 filter. It was already stocked I don't have a lot of information about how it was previously maintained. I took it on a whim thinking it would look good in my house and be an interesting thing for my kids. The day i brought it home I set it up in a corner and didn't really give it much thought. I started to do a little research on aquariums as an afterthought. The more I learned the more the more Jon Snow I became. Still, I'm determined to take ownership of my tank seriously. I'm hoping to learn as much fron as many as I can and in the future give back to those who are in the same situation I am now.
Thank you
