Getting Back Into It

[jsabol]

Hello All,
I am returning to fish keeping after several years. I started with a 50gal African cichlid tank and kept it for several years until I moved. Seven years have passed and I now find myself getting back into it, although on a slightly smaller scale - 5gal guppies. I have had a tank going since Feburary and have found that the guppies are more of a challenge then the cichlids. So I am looking forward to having a place to get advice and tips from others.
current setup
5gal Floval tank
mix of live and artifical plants ( mostly live)
1 guppy (looking to add more soon)
2 cory catfish

I love guppies and corys and I have both but I will just say that you really need to get some more guppies as soon us possible because he/she will get very lonely as they are a schooling species Good luck and I hope you enjoy the hobby as much as we all do

SeanTrollope just out of interest what type of cories do you have? Are they peppered ones?

 

[SeanTrollope]
