Hey there everyone, i made this account about a month ago then forgot i had it. my first post regarded a 3 gl tank i had with a fear that my fish were going to die from lack of space. after that i havent posted for a while.
i recently baught a 20gl tank and can say things have improved since then.

a little background on me--> i am from CA (US) but now live in Alabama. i've never had a freshwater fish tank before, and take this hobby very serious. i plan to do all my research before buying anything from now, i have quickly learned my lesson in that department.
besides fish keeping, im into photography and writing. hopefully ill post some photos here soon so you all can get an idea of what im working with.

i very much appriciate all your thoughts and suggestions.

id love it if anyone could just tell me one thing that they have learned with keeping freshwater fish- one thing that they think is very important when it comes to this hobby.

thank you, and i hope you all are having a nice day.
 
Welcome again! Well, I've learned a few things over the years...

1. PATIENCE, PATIENCE, PATIENCE!!!!
2. Dont overstock
3. Change your water regularly

:)
 
The more room the better.
Get a good book of the kind of fish your interested in and do some research.
Ask a lot of questions
Welcome and good luck. :)
 
All of the above;)



Research their diet and feed them accordingly and they will thrive.

NEVER slack on maintainence:)
