Are you planning on cycling this tank? I'm sorry if I missed that in your other posts, but if you arn't planning on it I would really encourage you to do some research on the topic to drastically reduce the stress on your fish/reduce fish loss and encourage a healthy environment for them to thrive in. It takes a bit of time, but in the long run it is so much more worth it! If you are planning on it, well then go ahead and disregard my heads-up and enjoy your tank ;-} How big will it be?

So exciting getting a tank though! And you'll have time to get the decor as you like it, and plants settled in, and research the fish - i.e. look at the pictures and day-dream...
I was mad excited when I got my big tank, even though I couldn't even set it up for ages.
We want sizes and spec and the like!!!

Yes i am going to cycle it - have read the newbie section on cycling and it helped heaps - before reading that i would have ran the tank for 24 hours and then put the fish in

As for the size - as big as my money will allow

The shop here has them on special on Saturday so i will wait till then so i can get a better and bigger tank with stand rather than a smaller one without a stand.
