OK... I know it says only dumb questions are ones not asked... but you havent heard my questions.
1st let me give u the rundown on what I would like to get.
roughtly 15-25 gallon tank (more towards 25-25 I believe)
A school on Neon Tetra
A Plocostomas (I poked thru some old threads here and got a little info on the different types
At least 1 catfish (should they at least be in pairs?)
A Snail (my g/f is driving me nuts about getting a snail)
This as im sure you can tell... will be a freshwater tank
Now here are my questions
1.) What type of food and is a single food going to work well here. I know the Pleco will be more of a bottom feeder and help keep the rocks clean but the catfish I am not very knowledgable about. (the snail I dont hav the faintest idea.)
2.) Does this seem Like to many or too few fish.
3.) I don't wnat to go the live plant route yet as I am VERY inexperienced.
4.) I don't wnat to sound cheap but... I'm cheap. let me know the places you can get by by cutting corners (fish food or rocks or something like that) and can you let me know when its important to make sure to but the "name brand" stuff
I was going to just google for results but I would rather get all my info from 1 place and after looking around here it DEFINATLY looks like people around here know their stuff. I can see I will be getting the tank this weekend and letting it cycle over the weekend (at least). I was hoping to get the fish asap but I'm glad I found this place because they all probably would have been dead
Thanks ahead of time for all your help.
