I'm pretty new, but always clean or change your filter cartridge. You can tell when it's really dirty or clogged when the flow from your filter starts to reduce.

About Yourself:
Mine and my girlfriends tank =).
Fish Kept:
1 angel fish, 2 albino cory, and 2 burmese boarder loach.
Corals/Plants:
Plants: Echinodorus Amazonicus
Decor: Gravel and fake coral
Tank Size:
12 gallons
Advice:
Keep up with the tank cleaning wise. I have had this tank for about 4 years now and my biggest problem I had when I was starting out was not maintaining a clean tank. Also, take your time when adding new fish. Do the research! There have been some instances when I was starting out when I just got a fish only to find out it was an aggressive fish that picked on all my other 'community' fish.

About Yourself:
I'm 30 yrs old from NY. I've had this tank for 3 years or so. Previously an 8 gallon and a 2 gallon desk aquarium. If I knew I had a more permanent place for a larger tank, I would easily have a 100+ gallon right now. I love it. (I am getting the itch for a saltwater tank..bye bye $$$)
Fish Kept:
School of 12 Neon Tetras & 2 Glow Light Tetras / 2 Julii Corydoras / 2 baby Black Angelfish / 1 Bamboo Shrimp / 3 Mystery Snails
Corals/Plants:
All plastic plants, w/an under gravel air diffuser coming up through a plastic log fixture (looks really cool!).
Tank Size:
28 gallons
Advice:
*More fish = more water changes* Over filter!! keep it clean. research the fish you put in. don't over crowd the tank. dont make your upkeep so much work that you dont enjoy the tank! have fun!
