When i first started out in fish keeping i was given a 10gal tank by an old landlord of mine- i had wanted to keep fish for many years back then and had only recently had the opotunity to have a tank. I was very poor back then and i had no access to the internet back then whatsoever and all the books i found on fish keeping were at least £15's.
So i went around lots of lfs's trying to find out all i could about fish keeping.
Luckily back then i didn't get any seriously bad advice, i was told to do weekly water changes with dechlorinator and not to have more than 6fish over 3inchs in the tank.
But i ended up getting 3mollys and 3chinese algae eaters back then anyway due to some bad advice.
Amazingly i didn't lose a single fish at first and did alright for the fist couple of months- then the CAE's jumped out of the tank and 2 of the mollys got trapped in a cave i made for them that had fallen down when a book fell on the tank. I was left with one molly who had 5 fry and 6months later i got connected up to the internet and did a heck of a lot of researching.
