Description:
I have several tanks. Both Fresh and Saltwater. These are my tank sizes: 30g hospital tank, 50g saltwater, 135g saltwater , 264 gallon freshwater cichlid tank. I over filter all my tanks and do freaquent water changes and top off evaporation (once a week).
Advice:
Reasearch the fish you want to keep before you purchase them. Get a bigger tank than you think you will need (anything smaller than a 4 foot 50 gallon is best for a hospital tank). Remember the 1 inch fish you buy in a shop could turn into a 12 or 15 inch monster, so research and buy a good size tank !

Freshwater:
Cichlids: Oscars, Portwine acara (breeding pairs), jack dempsey, frontosa,Firemouth, Various African Mbuna, many other species over the years.
