Thanks everyone for your input. I may go out and get the 10 gal and cycle it before adding my platies into it. At least I have a little more knowledge and reading the beginner page helped out a lot. I have lots to learn! :)
You know, honest opinions are the best kind. :good:
I just want to get me feet wet and understand what kind of costs I will be getting into. I now know (from reading other's posts) not to trust folks from Petco or Petsmart for aquarium needs. The guy there said I could have 2 platies in...
I bought a 2.5 gallon Aqueon Minibow a week ago and did the run through cycle w/o fish. So today I bought some bumblebee platies and was told by the store clerk that I don't need a heater. I do have a hood and a light on this aquarium but I am second guessing this guy.
Anywho, any...
