My First Tank!

[Captain Retardo]

Hello! Today I got my first tank, it is a 29 gallon! I have some questions though about what I need:

Have:

• 100 watt heater (came with the starter kit, I think i need a 150 watt)
• Hood with light
• Power filter
• Tank
• Playsand

Need:

• Backround
• Siphon
• Bucket
• Silicon Sealant
• Driftwood
• Plastic Plants
• Filter Media
• Four-Gang Multi Socket
• Water Conditioners
• Rocks
• Ammonia (for cycling)

Am I forgetting something?

I don't see water anywhere in there...

Get some melafix, dr. wellfish aquarium salt too.

Though, may I ask, what exactly is a four gang multi socket?

Congrats on the new tank.

And myxazyn (spelling?) for white spot - most people get it.

Also, what kind of fish are you planning to get?

It is just that some rocks can increase ph/hardness which some fish may not like, and wood can somtimes do the opposite...

Oh, and obviously fish food.....

Thanks everybody!

The fish I am planning to get are:

2 Bolivian Rams
6 Kuhli Loaches
6 Corydoras Trilineatus
2 Cherry Barbs
1 Dwarf Gourami


I will get peat moss for the tank, because our water is slightly alkaline here, and I want to make it acid

A fourgang multi socket is well, a multi socket, with 4 sockets (you know, those things that you plug stuff into)

If you need some plastic plants I have some if you want. PM me if interested and forget the corys, the kulis will be enough and corys like groups of 5 but sometimes can be ok in3's.
