So finally decided to get back into keeping tropical fish - had thought about marine, but with 5 kids a dog and running my own business, the time just isnt there. Tropical I can manage.
Tank I have went with is the Interpet 160 litre Aquaverse. Ive used Interpet aqauriums in the past and always found them to be excellent.
At the moment its day 3 so still very much in the early part of the cycle and purely artificial ornaments in the tank, will be adding real plants shortly.
Intention will to have a community tank and mainly have small species. The first fish I will introduce are Zebra Danios as I have always found them to be hardy and a good starter fish for a new tank.
Going to be tracking my water levels and I am using a combination of the Tetra test strips and the Tetra app. However I will need to source an appropriate ammonia test as this isnt covered on the 6 in 1 strips.
