Good afternoon, everybody.

My name is Daniel and as soon as my 5 year old son, Sam, has earned enough good behaiour stars, we will be getting a small tropical fish tank.

I would like to know some basic facts:

  1. What essential equipment will I need?
  2. What breed of fish are compatible with eachother? I am hoping for some bright, colourful types, e.g Neons
  3. What kind of maintenance is required and how frequent. Will a 5 - 6 year old be capable of doing everything himself? What can't he do?
  4. A reputable supplier in London - North West London is where we are based
  5. Some good resources/websites/forums

I was guided to MFK by a sales person at Wyvale Garden Centre in Osterley, name of Ayaz. Says he keeps stingrays! I can't imagine how one would do that at home, but there you go - I have limited imagination!

Thanks for any tips for a beginner.
