I'm New Here, From Ontario, Canada

Hi everyone.
We have a 40 Gal aquarium, and we just recently set it up. So far we have 2 Gourami's, 3 red platys, 3 blue guppies, and just today..on impulse, we bought 2 Columbian sharks and a Blue Lobster (crayfish). Anyway, I'll be posting a question about that...
anyway, that's my gang of fishy friends Can't wait to get to know you all.

Welcome...

I dont like to be the bearer of bad news but the columbian sharks are brackishwater fish needing a salinity of 1.005 as juveniles and almost marinelike conditions as adults, and the crayfish will have a fieldday with your guppys or anything else it can get ahold of...

Yes, I realized that I'm upset with the store for not being more knowledgable...they're returning to the store..for a FULL REFUND!
