Hello everyone im justin I am new to AC and to owning a Aquatic Habitat and i have a 15 gal tank without fish. I am open for suggestions on what a (Noob) should start with as well as some ideals on how to mantian my fish the best possible! ;-)....

Cycling the tank before adding fish is a start. Links in my signature.

And when you do stock, small fish = small tanks. Perhaps a school of small fish of some kind and cherry shrimp?
