New 180G Arow Tank-Need advice please!

[Bderick67]

True Newbie. Had a 50G in highshool/college. Mostly goldfish.

I am a smart guy and rarely start things I connot do the right way (ekcept for speel, of corse). Hence my seeking advice.

Nothing wrong with being a newbie. Do yourself a favor and research the nitrogen cycle pertaining to the aquarium. It is good to understand how you biological filtration works. Also knowledge of water parameters such as ammonia, nitrItes, nitrAtes, pH carbonate hardness(kh) and general hardness(gh) is very helpful.

Her are a couple of links to get ya started;

Afterwards you'll definetly have many questions, so come back and start new threads with all your questions.

Is there a way to buy one from a breeder and obtain a permit for the fish?
