Hello Everyone

Hello everyone,
im new here and new to the hobby.
I got a tank last sunday, looks nice, a fair size, cant remembe the measurements exactly.......or roughly lol

Well theres no fish or plants in yet, i was told to wait 5-7 days so the water dechlorinates.

Does anyone know a really good fish store in London? (zones 1-3).

Thanks,



RedStar

Hey and

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Try asking in the Chit Chat section about the fish store and I'm sure you will get an answer. Also, you said that you were waiting for the water to dechlorinate. Chlorine will dissipate from water in about 24 hours but Chloramine can only be removed with a dechlorinator such as Stress Coat. You will need to add that at start up and when you do water changes. Also, I would suggest a fishless cycle rather than adding fish right away. It will be much easier on you and the fish.
