Hi,
I am very new to having an aquarium for fresh water fish.
I have just started getting into this hobby less than 4 years ago. I started small with the basic beta fish and bowl.
After my beta died, I wanted to try something completely different, and I bought my self a used 55 gallon fish tank for a fresh water tropical fish set up to get me in the right direction of things. I did not want to buy the tank new, as I am new to the hobby maybe later on when I am ready for a bigger, tank, then I will buy a new one.Anyhow
the previous owner, did not tell me how to set up my tank So I am clueless and I have the fear of messing something up if I set it up with out knowing what to do
as I have searched on line how to set one up, but there is no information ( at least I have not found any), and I thought I would join here, for the information, and some great ideas on the types of tropical fish I should start out with.
What I have for my 55 gallon tank.
I have two Air Pumps, Two Filters, and 1 heater as I was told I need a heater for tropical fish I also have Rocks, and some decorations ( Wanting to do the pirate scene.)
I was wanting to know, can any one explain to me how to set up my tank so that I can, enjoy it? Also can anyone share some ideas on some non aggressive starter tropical fish with some color to them. I dont like the dull boring fish. Any help, would be greatly appreciated, and I will gladly share photo's of my tank once it is set up .
Thank you in advance.
