Hi everyone.
Having had fish tanks in the past but not with the best success really i am now getting into the hobby again. Last tank i had was about 8 years ago, just a starter kit type tank but could never produce the tank i wanted due to probably not having the right equipment for what i wanted and lack of proper funds and of experience. I finally got rid of the tank (100lt) due to struggling with algae, no time to spend on it and regularly coming home to find my young kids decorating it with the T.V remote and lego and trying to feed the fish peanut butter on toast.
Purchased a borb 30 about 3 years ago for a Betta fish but this recently died, and its just not a fish tank, so have now convinced the wife for another proper tank set up so i can get into the hobby properly (i now have more time and spare money).
I managed to purchase an oase highline 200 & biomaster thermo filter (250) with cabinet for what i thought was a decent price (£350) so now itching to get to work on it.
Have a number of questions to ask before i dive in, im looking on setting it up in a month or 2 as im in no rush and want to get the set up right plus the trade of with the wife is to gety the lounge decorated and new carpet so that needs doing first before i fill the tank with water. So plenty of time to do my home work.
Cheers, Paul
