    Default Hello from Texas

    Hi folks I look foward to learning to take care of my new tank properly so the fish have a long, healthy , and happy life. I've been reading around the forum a couple days after setting up my first tank and I hope I didn't goof already. Advise seems to differ widely from friends to petsore to petstore. You guys on this forum seem to generally agree on most stuff so it makes me feel better taking ya'lls advise. Thanks in advance for the help and maybe i'll be able to contribute back someday.

    Hello and welcome.
    If it's called tourist season why can't I shoot them?
    Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.
    I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
    Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.
