Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hi my name is Lindsey, my boyfriend Mark and I decided to start a fish tank. We decided on a 10 gallon half moon from Petsmart, came with a filter and a heater, and we added a sand bottom to it. Well, the sand hasnt settled yet (its been 3 days) and we have alternated turning the filter on and letting that run, and turning it off to let the water settle. Can't really decide what the best option is.
We didn't rinse the sand first (stupid now that im looking back on it, but I guess i was being impatient), so Im wondering if that was crucial?
Anyway, whats everyone's advice? Also, as far as scenary, has anyone been able to do much with a ten gallon tank? Its got more height than most 10 gallons I have seen, not alot of floor space. I wanted driftwood, but im not sure where exactly to get that from, or if its even safe. Any comments are appreciated
