Plutoids Mom Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Hi! I've been keeping fish for 18 years with lots of failures and learning in the middle. I currently have a 75 gallon community tank that I just restocked for the first time in about 3 years. My four year old son has recently taken an interest in the tank so we added 6 congo tetras, 6 gold barbs, two pearl gouramis and two angelfish, named Plutoid and Fishy, to our existing 6 black and white skirt tetras and rosy barb. I'm pretty sure I've made stocking mistakes, despite my best research efforts, which is how I stumbled on the ACO's YouTube channel and forum. I'm hoping to keep learning from my mistakes and start up my old 20 gal long so I can try a planted tank again. I had a horrible failure with it 10 years ago and have been scared try since. All of the videos and posts are quite inspiring. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanTruth Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Welcome to the forum! You should definitely try your hand at a planted tank again. It’s really rewarding when the plants start to get going. I’m not particularly skilled with plants in general, but you eventually find plants that do well for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
