hello all

Hi all, good to find somewhere I can imerse myself on the net great looking forum.

I am new to fishys and am learning every day...

Here is my setup tell me what you think plz.

3ft tank
assortment of live plants
chunk of pink quartz
1 largish piece of driftwood

Tank has been going for about 4 months now, water levels are good... Strange brown gunk appearing on plants and rock, also on the gravle which is worrying me a bit!!!

5 x clown loach
2 x angel
1 x red fin shark
1 x pleco
5 x neon things
2 x orange platos (i think)

I know this sounds a lot but they are all young and dont take up much space, I will in the future invest in a 6 footer

I feed... cockles once a day and flakes twice a day.

I like natural looking tanks, and shamed to say I didnt really research fish before I set one up although after a few casualtys, learning by the day

Hi and

Im newish to the forum too but have had a lot of help already.

I have the brown gunk stuff (algae) aswell but I'm getting a Hillstream loach to eat it.

The people are really friendly here and should be able to help you if you need it.
I hadn't researched a lot into fish either but I seem to be learning more every day.

Do you have any photos of your tank?
