Hello,
I am interested in starting an aquarium but have some questions before I start buying anything. I am an absolute beginner so bear with me I only have been reading the posts on here for beginner’s and I have been reading a few books about fish. I am thinking about getting a 20 gallon tank (that is as big as I can fit in my house) and have a few fish. I wish thinking of getting,
- Guppy
-Neon Blue Guppy
-Golden Guppy
- Swordtail
-Red Wag Swordtail
-Black Swordtail
- Platy
-Tuxedo Platy
These are a few of the fish that was recommended for beginner’s, are these good choices? Anything else I should add? Also, I am having trouble deciding how many fish to buy. I have heard the 1in rule but heard it is not strict. If I picked these fish and any other suggestions, how many should I get? I am not planning on getting to many decorations but do want plants. I am still doing research but wanted to start to get a list together of what to get. Thank you in advance for the help.
