He's a common. He's small, only a couple inches long. I bought water conditioner, stress coat, and ich-out in case he gets ich. I am new to the whole fish keeping thing, this is my first fish since I was 5 and then my parents took care of it. I have room for a 10 gallon tank but not much larger than that. I did not know about cycling the tank but now I do. I'm going to the pet store later this morning to buy a 10 gallon tank, filter and what-not. Are there other things I will need? I didn't realize raising fish was so involved, but its the only pet I'm alowed to have and I really want to give it a try. |
