Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi, I just purchased an aquarium set from a local person which includes a 10 gallon tank,Hood with light, stand,Whisper filter, Heater, rock (mostly black with various colors thrown in the mix), fake grass, and sunken ship. The lady told me that everything is in good working condition and that they just took it down a week ago when their last fish died. I get the tank tomorrow and have several questions since I am new to this. First, how should I clean the tank, and how often later on? The tank has the colorful mix on the floor. Second, what is cycling? I would like to try to get everything set up so that hopefully, I can put in the first fishies in next week. Another question is what kinds of fish should I put in the tank? I want the aquarium to look cool and colorful... so it would also be great to see what mix people have put in their 10 gal tank. I will read up more on this subject also. Thanks.
