    Question Hi There!

    Hi my name is Sara, my husband and I are starting a fish tank for our youngest son! We are super excited about this as we have always wanted to have an aquarium in our home. The problem is we have no clue what we want or what's compatible. Our son is 3 years old, we also have a 5 year old in the house. We want fish that are easy to learn with and are fun to watch. Please we need help!

    Welcome to the AC!!

    Stay away from goldfish! Possibly the worst beginner fish ever! Also 1inch of fish per gallon is nonsense. That's my wee rant over
    My therapist says I need a bigger tank . . . . .
