hey how's it going. two weeks ago i decided to start up an aquarium. i've done some reading and im considering using the eclipse system 12 by marineland. is this a good selection? also im thinking about keeping some neon tetras and a silver hatchet fish. i read these two species were compatible. are either of these fish hard to manage or not a good idea for beginners? if not how many tetras should a school have in a 12 gallon. are there any fish you would suggest in place or along with my current selection (algae eating fish?)? a lot sites i've visited say that live plants are best for a tank. is this true? If so is there a specific kind of live plant that should be used with specific fish?
whew
i hope thats not too many questions
any answers or other suggestions would be strongly appreciated.
