Awesome! Thank you so much for all your help and I shall be in touch soon! :)

Thanks! :D I will have a look on that website, would you mind if I let you know what species I liked the look of? Just incase it's a terrible choice ;)

Will I be able to add more slowly?

6, do you think I should get a bigger one first? Would it be worth it rather than using a tank that small?? (Thanks by the way, you're really helping me out :))

yeah, next time I'll go on the day before they get their newest stock and then any diseases will be apparent, do you have any ideas on the species to start with, considering I have a tiny tank it'll have to be a tough little guy who doesn't mind being a little closed in

No, I had a good look at them, I am now aware though that I bought my fish hours after it had been delivered to the store, so any bacteria it had didn't have time to be visible in the store, there was an established quarantine tank though which was being treated at the time.

Thanks for the help guys, he just died :( I'll have to start again with smaller fish and invest in a massive aquarium

Yeah I will take him back, or get a much bigger tank, I planned to buy a big one anyway, I will use the smaller one as a quarantine tank or something, do you think he will get better or die? He has moved once in the past few hours. But I will definitely get a better suited fish to my tank.

Ok I'll do the water change every day, I asked the woman at the shop about him being lonely and she just said they don't sell two at the same time and to come back in a week, I've been worried about that. But I also don't want to put too many in because it's quite a small tank.

Hi guys, I set up my very first aquarium about two weeks ago, the pet store owners recommended a 28 litre aquarium (which I now know was probably not a good idea) and after a week sold me a Danio to place in it, he's been in there for four days now and seemed to be getting on very well. I did a...
