Hello everyone. I am somewhat new to the world of aquariums. I have successfully had bettas for years, but they were almost always in a bowl and required such little maintenance. A few months ago I bout the Aqueon Evolve 4 gallon tank for my current betta to have a little more room. Since then I have added an african dwarf frog, a few mystery snails, and two ghost shrimp to that tank.
And im ready for something bigger. But i really dont have much experience with these things. I have so many questions I'd rather ask first before buying a 20 gallon, than after. Whats the best (affordable) brands of 20 gallon tanks? What exactly is water cycling? I know starting a tank is a lot of work and money but I have both right now and I've always wanted to learn how to really (properly) take care of fish! Any tips/pointers for a newbie to larger tanks would be great!
