Hello, My name is Mat and I'm an aquaraholic

[Asphenaz]

Good Afternoon,

I am new to this hobby. I just received a 30-ish gallon tank as payment for helping someone move.

Since this is my first tank I've had much to learn and I'm currently running into my first big problem. My supposed fishless cycle, has turned into a fish cycle. My biggest lesson is not to ever trust the local fish store.

I currently have; which I hope will survive.
6x Platy's
4x Zebra Danios
2x Gold Gouramis.

We'll here's to hopping I don't run into any more problems.

Welcome aboard.

Most fish shops indeed can/should NOT be trusted.

Thanks all, this site is a great wealth of information and great people as well.

I've already read the article on helping my poor fish survive the cycling of my tank. It's already proved very beneficial.

Thanks again.
