Advice:
55 gallons is really the smallest size for mbuna as there was much agression and I did loose a fish so I wouldn't recommend this size to anyone interested in mbuna. 55-75 gallons is better.

About Yourself:
I love this new hobby.. I just picked it up a month ago , and I can't stop.. I now love fish like no one can believe and I just recently purchased my next tank that I would like to do just for Discus and a non-aggressive mix 50 Gallon :)
Fish Kept:
Mix Cichlid tank, with 1 Pleco, and 1 mature mail Red Tail Shark. All get a long, majority are African Cichlids, and a few South American
Corals/Plants:
Mostly decided to stick to fake plants, just because I thought that they are more maintenance friendly, and the fish love them just as much. I take good care of the tank so I decided to stick to different plants and mix up the colors so each fish could have there own area to hide, eventually as I add more fish.
Tank Size:
60 gallons
Advice:
Setup your decoration before you fill your tank with water ;) I tried to do an underworld city type with neat colors and fully loaded with life and colors.

About Yourself:
I got into fishkeeping due to my gf who has previously had tropical fish...Tbh I wasn't that keen on having them at the start & I didnt know nothing about keeping fish, but after alot of research we now have our tank set up now, I would say to anybody thinking about getting fish is to STOP THINKING & GET SOME!!!!!
Fish Kept:
2 Mollies (Female pregnant again!!!)6 Neon Tetra, 3 Plattie's, 1 Yellow gourami, 3 Fancie tailed Guppies & a Bristle nosed Pleco....2 Apple snails & babies & numerous Trumpet snails....Soon to be getting a colony of Red Cherry Shrimp aswell because they look cool & will make a good addition to my clean-up crew.
Corals/Plants:
Anubis, cant remember the other plants name. Will be adding some Java Fern soon.
Tank Size:
16 gallons
Advice:
1st of all do lot of research...When you get your tank let it cycle properly....Patience is a virtue!!!! Regular water changes 15-20% weekly. Regular water tests is also advisable aswell....You can test your water with 1 of the various test kits currently on the market, i personally use the test strips made by API. Never overstock your fishtank (less is more) it increases the chance of diease & it can stress your fish & eventually lead to death, your fish will thank you for the swimming space anyway....NEVER overfeed your fish!!! Work out how much they eat & only put in as much as they can eat in 5-10 mins....Good house keeping is is a must when keeping fish.
