Returning to the tropical fish hobby

aussie · 11-15-2008, 08:19 PM

Hi all: I was in the hobby for quite sometime and had to stop because of relocating. I know have more to to do it all over again. I will be doing fresh water. Will have at least a 100 to 150 gallon tank. Will probally do a Chiclid tank which I never did before. In the process of learning all I can before jumping in to it.Its a big learning curve. I only want to do it once, hopfully the right way. Looking forward to this forum for help.

Hi! Welcome aboard! Glad to hear you're starting up again and we would love to see some pics of that tank when you get it up and going. Happy posting!

I can not wait to get it up and running also.It will be after the first of the year till I get it all together and running. Theres alot to get together so it is done right. Seeings its going to be a Chiclid tank it is going to be different than what I am used to. I have got to do alot of water testing etc. Figuring out where the tank will go is also important. It will all come together at some point.
