Hi there and to the forum

Did you cycle the tank before adding your fish? If you diden't, or have not yet read up on cycling, I surgest that you take a look at this thread, to formiliarise yourself with the process.[topic="224306"]other thread[/topic]

Good to know there aren't as many people reading up on fish before purchase as there should be, IMO. Breeding can be both simple and complex, depending on the fish, and the level of detail you wish to go into with the project. Guppies for example, are easy enough. Put a good male and two good females togeter and wait lol, or hard, like some of the larger plecos that need simulated seasons and perfect water quality. Reading up and practice are the only ways of gelling this knowlage, but it is also rewarding to see the fruits of your labor, while raising fry.

Good luck with your new hobby

Looks nice! Are the rocks and plants separate or all one piece? Either way I like it, but if you put it together yourself, nice job!

lol it's all one peice, was going for the easy approach this time round, bought it without thinking of the size, lucky it fit in really
