not at all, my other tank runs its self. I just feed the fish

 

 

im keen to get this new tank setup though. Be a 10k plus exercise to get it running by the time I buy all the equipment, lighting etc

haha it's nice when the contained ecosystem sorts itself out... but I've been through disease, fungus, algae, etc on a freshwater tank for a decade which never self-settled; never getting a fish tank again unless it's a goldfish bowl lol

hahaha rookie

I was most definitely a rookie haha I got it when I was about 8 years old

haha,

 

ive had tanks all my life and these days things have changed. A lot of technology, but tropical are the easiest fish to keep.

oh I'm sure I could do a better job than I did when I was a child, but the whole exercise was just not worth it, even if they become successfully self-contained, imho. If you want to see a good fish tank, heaps of local businesses spend decent money on them or go to an aquarium. If you want the fish because they're nice to just "watch" you can do that online for free. If you just like them as pets, fair enough and go your hardest

I do it because im not retarded and I can sit and watch them all day without having to pay $30 to walk around with stupid kids. Pros far out way any cons or your concepts for looking at fish 😄 😘

lookin' pretty schmick. looks like it's on an upstairs landing of some sort or is that an optical illusion in the last photo (or a stairs to go to a basement or something)? if it did have to go up a flight of stairs it looks like it would have been a bit of a mission to get it up there
