Been waiting and reading and waiting and reading n reading some more and finally decided to go and buy one. I just wanted to make sure i knew what i was doing and I also wanted to make sure I really did want to put in the time and maintain an aquarium. It was hard not to impulse buy a few months ago, but if i did and lost interest it wouldnt be fair to the fish, so now im ready.thumbs2: Its a 30g not to big, but not too small. I am looking forward to setting it up with the fishless cycle. I will start setting it up tomorrow so ill be posting lots of questions even though ive read alot, some things arent very clear to me, so look out ?'s will be coming.lol....:help:

Good to have you!

Just remember, it's almost like learning to ride a bicycle or drive a car. It seems really really intimidating at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's a smooth ride :sbiggrin:

Feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Except what color Mith's thong is. :rollingyellow:

You do not give in to impulse buying, think about the hobby before jumping into it and research everything first. You have the makings of a very good fishkeeper.
