Native tanks are the best
About Yourself:
I am a 33y.o. full-time registered nurse and a part-time general contractor who has been keeping aquariums for the last 10 years.
Fish Kept:
All locally harvested native fish- Largemouth bass,black crappie,bluegill,freshwater eel,crayfish,suckers,dace, golden clams, and even a painted turtle. The only things storebought are the snails and the plants. Harvesting these specimens is an adventure in itself, you never know what you'll end up with.
Corals/Plants:
various plants that looked interesting from the fish store.
Tank Size:
120 gallons
Advice:
filtration, filtration, filtration. Always use more or better filters than recommended. I never check water quality and rarely clean my tank, because I keep hardy fish and grossly overfilter.
****Buy supplies like filters, lighting, ect. off of the internet/ebay--MUCH cheaper!
Make sure to cycle the tank for a month before serious stocking begins. I use "expendable" feeder fish like rosy reds and goldfishin the early stages.

Advice:
RINSE your PlaySand Thoroughly...and DON'T use pre-packaged kitchen sponges on the inside of your tank...because whatever chemical they use to keep the sponges moist inside the package is HIGHLY TOXIC to FISH. I found out the hardest way possible...wiping out 80% of my Malawians..some older than 2 years. So stay away from sponges altogether, just use a paper towel folded over a few times.

Dare to dream !!!!
About Yourself:
Just a newbie that discovered this site whilst trying to learn the ropes about starting a fish tank. We had a very small 10 litre tank and thought the fish could do with a larger home. One thing led to another and now we've ended up with another weekly chore around the house.
Fish Kept:
Got some Goldfish in there with some Cardinal Tetra's.
Pretty boring I know, but we've had to start somewhere low cost in case things went pear shaped........
Corals/Plants:
Plastic Fantastic
Tank Size:
40 gallons
Advice:
Ask lots of questions and dont learn the hard way. Patience pays off in the end.
Have a go !!!!!!

This is our first attempt at something larger than a bucket.......LOL !!!!!
