if you want any of these fish to live, then i suggest you go to the begginers section. u need to do alot more than wait for a week let me guess, was that the local fish shops suggestion?

most local fish shops stock orniments, and driftwood and also live plants... try there maybe?

Please get the water conditions right first, get the water tested by LFS or buy kit and do it yourself.

As for ornament its personal taste but you can

As far as sites to buy ornaments from, there are quite a few out there. Do a Google Search for "Fish Ornaments" or "Tank Decorations" and you'll find quite a few. Of course, there is also E-Bay - get some second hand stuff at relatively cheap prices. I've not bought anything online, so I can't recommend anything. I believe in supporting my LFS.

Good Luck!!

I would stick with all natural decorations (bogwood, rocks, petrified wood).

IMHO the "kiddie" decorations don't look goo in a tank, and you will grow tired of them after awhile.


BTW I can read your post just fine.

Becca....bit harsh that!...come on

I must admit i hate it when all words are written like text messages but his wasn't that bad.

Not everyone has brilliant grammar skills. i thought that was a bit nasty to be honest.

I agree.

People should keep in mind that this is an international forum and not everyone has perfect English.

I removed the paragraph in my post above. I apologize to anyone who took offense to it. It wasn't my intention (which is why I started it off with "Please don't take this personally...") After re-reading it, it did seem rather inappropriate, so I deleted it and offer my apologies, again, to anyone who did take offense to what I wrote.

Sorry!

I used http/www.bigalsonline.com for my ornaments, and had a great experience with them. And, they have great prices on filter media.
