Hi guys and dolls!
We have recently setup our first tropical tank and I'm here to gain knowledge from those of you who have an abundance of it.
So far we have 11 neon tetras, an upside down catfish (which I think is ugly, but hubby loves it) 3 platys, one clown loach (I'm on the hunt for more at the moment) 10 guppies and a sucker fish (which can never be found)....
I have set up all the test kits, ammonia, nitrate, ph and also bought all the required foods.
This is a new setup, so we are only a few weeks into it.i look forward to discussing issues and facts with you all in the near future

Hi stace, welcome!

Welcome Stace,
Upload up a few pics of your setup.
Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes & dreams. -
Err.... Now. I did say I'm a newbie in the 'aquatic' world..... Don't go all technical and want me to upload pics.... I'm technomologically challenged

Sounds like you're doing well Stax, just keep in mind that clown loaches get huge and can cause a fair amount of damage around the tank, especially if planted.

Rainbows - thank you!!! That explains the leaves and crap floating in the morning....
I recently added 2 sail guppies... They are beautiful! I'm not getting any house work done as I find myself staring at the tank for stupid amounts of time....
Another thing. How do I upload a pic? I'm not at all tech savvy.... -
