I want to know how well or bad your first tank went!! Would be interesting to hear your experiences!

Mine was a small 1 gallon fish bown for a goldfish! I feel really bad for having such a horridly small tank for such a big fish!

i then bought him a 2.5 gallon tank. He pulled through and was very strong. eventually i sent him into a huge tank at my lfs! Sadly, i still see the 1gallon gold fish bowls :(
 
i bought a complete set up second hand for £150. stand, tank, filter, fish, etc

it turns out i was ripped off and by the time i move back to my parents house nothing will be the same as the initial set up i bought at the very end of december.

and the fish in there would have gotten too big for the tank (eg-24g and 4 angels, 3 keyhole cichlids). so they got rehomed


all in all i consider myself already an infinitely better fish keeper than the lady who had the tank before me
 
My first fish tank was a disaster, as with the rest of you guys. We had to start somewhere :D

It was a jar that I used as a tank for a betta. The betta actually lasted two weeks, before one night decided to give up its life. Probably because of ammonia, my dad told me to not change the water =/
 
we had our disasters!

Wow, that mayonaise jar one was very extreme, haha!! Sorry, nothing to laugh about. poor danios :(
