Well it's been a couple of years since I have kept fish but now I am back! Can't believe I even remember my password to my account!
I recently moved and decided that having an aquarium would look very nice in my new place. I took advantage of the Petco $1/gal sale and got me a 29g tank. So right now all I have is the tank and am in need of a couple of things that hopefully you guys can help with.
I think I have a 50 or 100 watt Marineland heater from my previous tank somewhere which should still work. I also have the now discontinued Penguin 330 filter. I used that filter in a 55g tank. Do you guys think it will be overkill for the 29g? The filter does have the capability to lower the flow but I am not sure how much the gph goes down.
The things I need is a nice stand, hood with light, and decorations. Anyone have some advice? I am currently looking at this stand Aquarium Stands & Furniture: Aquatic Fundamentals Aquarium Stands & Canopies but I am not sure if $100 is too much for just a stand. Any suggestions for hoods?
And as far as decorations, what kind of gravel and plants do you guys recommend for a community tropical fish tank? I'm thinking of getting some cories, tetras, and other schooling fish.
I hope to get this tank up and running soon!
