Re: Fish keepers of the world unite!

Im a fishie noob too!
I just have my little 60l tropical tank with 4 cory's. Cant do photos so you will have to imagine a heavily planted tank, slightly tea stained from the bogwood with a couple of easter island heads in it!!
Looking forward to getting a teeny shoal of something to zip about as well!

The bog wood water colour will go eventually,with a few water changes
You will be getting a bigger one soon...once you get the bug
Neons are nice in a smaller tank

Re: Fish keepers of the world unite!

I am new to fish keeping i bought a starter kit and 3 goldfish and i fell in love with another 3 so got another starter set for my bedroom but then read up how big they get the starter set was 11.99 plastic plant, sponge filter, tubing, small net, air pump and 12 litre tank. luckily i found a 70 litre online for ?16. A friend of mine had got bored of some guppies and was going to destroy them so i put them in one of the starter tanks and a few days later found out they had to be heated and now have a heater.
At the minute

i have a 70litre/18.2 gallion coldwater tank 6 gold fish 2f 4m
and a 12litre/2.4 gallion heated to 24oC guppy 1f 3m

in 2 weeks i can afford a 15 gallion tank which the guppies will go in.
i havent got a pic of the guppies but same setup as the right pic but with a heater added
