Gestaltgal Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Hey there! I'm new around here, and I am starting the research process for a first time tank. I'm excited, but I'm really nervous. I started with Freshwater Aquariums for Dummies, which essentially taught me all the ways I could kill a fish! After recovering from the shock, I hopped online and started poking around, and found a wonderful corner of YouTube full of fish keeping information! I don't have a ton of financial resources, so I want to smart small, and I look forward to reading and watching what folks around here do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 welcome, and dont let all the info overwhelm you. good resources available here, and video's on you tube besides the books. most people have a learning curve with their first tank, but most of it doesnt take very long to figure out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirsten Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Welcome to the hobby! You're already off to a great start by doing your research and feeling responsibility towards your new fish and plants. Your care and observation and desire to do what's best for them will take you a long way! That and the fact that you're here. Aquarium Co-op has the best equipment and information I've ever found. Keep up that caring spirit and you'll do just fine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
