About Yourself:
Given a tiny (20l) tank last summer and thought it would be a real pain in the neck to look after, but got hooked and have wanted a bigger set up ever since. My wife got me the tank at Christmas. Moved the fish (and filter media, and some rocks) in from the smaller tank, they seem to love their new home.

3 x zebra danio; 3 x neon tetra; 3 x black widow tetra; 2 x bumble bee platy; 1 x albino cory; 2 x pepper catfish; 3 x amano shrimp.
Corals/Plants:
one small fake, 4 real .

33 gallons

About Yourself:
My husband actually got me into the hobby, he kept fish in college "back in the day" haha. He kept talking about it till it sparked my interest. Now I'm hooked, and I know more about it than he does! :-) Fish keeping/aquariums are relaxing, enjoyable and challenging, and I have found that fish really do have personalities. :-) I'm a stay at home mom and caretaker for my mother-in-law, so I really look forward to some quiet time with my fish. :-) Not to mention, a well maintained aquarium makes a house look twice as nice!
Fish Kept:
angelfish, harlequin rasboras, gouramis, tetras, hatchetfish, pleco, otocinclus cats, peppered corys, etc.
Corals/Plants:
several different types of live plants, not sure of all the names.
Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
Make sure you know which fish are compatible with each other. Don't just go with what looks good.
Don't use fish to cycle your tank, no matter if they are "hardy" or not. Ammonia and nitrite, even at low levels, are very toxic to fish. It may not kill them immediately, but it does irreversible damage to their gills and membranes, and I'm sure it can't be very comfortable. Would you like to swim around in a swimming pool full of battery acid, even if it was just a "little bit"? Didn't think so! :-) Sure, cycling takes some time, but it's worth it to have healthy, happy fish in the long run. Patience is a virtue!! haha
Test your water fairly often, just to make sure everything is okay.
Make a maintenance schedule and keep up with it! Ammonia is one of the first things to look for when you start losing fish. Don't just blame the pet store for selling you sick fish! A good maintenance schedule will make your life (and your fish's) a lot easier in the long run.
If you're not going to be 100% into this hobby, then don't even get started. It takes time, patience, a lot of work and some money to keep fish/aquariums successfully. If you barely have time for everyday things, you probably don't have time for fish, which isn't fair to them. You're responsible for the environment they live in, so if you neglect the tank, they suffer. It's not just as easy as adding fish to water and hoping everything works out.

Fish Kept:
Mollys, Neon Tetras, Platys, Gourami a small orange pleco for helping with algae and one very big and shy cat fish.
Corals/Plants:
Mix of plastic and silk plants, with Tahitian Moon Sand
Tank Size:
32 gallons
Advice:
Keeping a nice aquarium is tougher then one would think but worth the effort once you get it looking nice. Best way to learn is on the go (and with a little help from google). Start off with a tank (preferably a small one) and take it from there. The main advice I can give is regular cleaning and water changes + a good filter is the most important thing. And one more thing, HAIR ALGAE IS EVIL!!!!!
