Aquarium Advice Newbie
Went to the pet store late last week and got a 40 gallon tank. Now they said I have to go home set it up, wait a week, come back with a Sample of water to test the water and then I get the fish. Is this true? No fish are in my tank now. I just set it up.
Another thing is where is the best place in the house to put the tank? Is kitchen ok? Its about 5 feet away from the oven. I guess it depends on the fish, but which fish are less bothered by activity and noise? I personally would rather have it in the bedroom where it's quiet, but I just want to know what is best. We do plan on getting plants and little houses for the fish to hide.
Lastly, which fish are more social, easier and less bothered by people around? Its just my small family at home ( husband and 2 young children.)
Hopefully someone here can let me know how to get started.
