About Yourself:
Well, my friend got an aquarium. I decided to get her a fish one day and ended up with my OWN aquarium! That was back in February... my only regret is that I only bought a 10 Gallon. Aside from that I work with dogs, live in Humboldt and spend much of my time at the beach.
Fish Kept:
1 Bumblebee Goby, 1 Apistogramma Borellis Dwarf Cichlid, 4 Celestial Pearl Danios, 2 Guppies, 2 Ghost shrimp and 4 Cherry shrimp
Corals/Plants:
all plastic
Tank Size:
10 gallons
Advice:
Be aware of what you want in your aquarium and set it up accordingly. Take your time with it. Rushing the process will most likely cause problems. I'de also like to mention that the smaller the tank the less room for error!!

Corals/Plants:
Ribbon plants (live)
Fir Hair aquarium plants (artificial)
Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
20 - 30 % water changes every other week. Water change + Gravel Vac tank once a month. When keeping the semi aggressive and aggressive fish I usually spread out "Cichlid Gold" pellets on one side for the larger fish (Jack Dempsey and Oscar) while the juvenile Blood Parrot eats pellet on the opposite side of tank.
I do use live plants in my tank which I don't recommend, for they rip them out my gravel one or two times a week. I only keep them my tank because they look good.
I usually have problems with a high Ph (7.6 - 7.8), but the logs I keep in the tank and extra aeration brings it down.
When decorating your tank, be sure to leave a plentiful amount of swimming room, but at the same time have unique hiding places for fish. My cichlids are territorial and in my aquarium I keep places where each of them can sleep at night without being discovered.
Some fish don't like a lot of light! My cichlids seem more active when my light is very dim. Also, don't keep your lights on for too long. LEDs are great for being able to not raise temperature dramatically in your aquarium but they still promote algae growth. Logs and walls of aquarium will fill up with algae. I do have two small plecostomeses to help, but that doesn't ge the job done. Best thing to do is when it really shows take a toothbrush and scrape it off the walls and decorations. Then scoop up floating algae with your net.
This doesn't 100% work in all areas, but I highly recommend getting your fish and help from local pet stores instead of businesses such as Petco and Petsmart. These places are fine for getting equipment for smaller aquariums, but local places usually can help you create a safer habitat for your fish.
