So you want some fish to look at?
Because the tank you saw in your neighbours house looked awesome and you want the same??

It's not as easy as it looks....................

Some rules you have to attend to:
  1. What kind of fish would you like?
  2. if you've decided on the kind of fish, are you able to place a tank big enough in your home for them? (for example: Angelfish won't thrive in a tank less then 60 centimeters of hight)
  3. do you know enough of how to keep the fish you want to give them an happy and joyful home? If not, google around and find out!
  4. So first and most important rule is: what fish do you want to keep, then decide on the tanksize!!
  5. do you want a planted tank or not?! It takes a lot more effort to cycle a planted tank before putting any fish in
It's just some advise..................
 
acually there is a lot of rules, fish in a small tank soon grow to big for the tank, to many fish in a tank, makes for a sick tank and dead fish.
 
I don't quite understand what you mean when you say

"It takes a lot more effort to cycle a planted tank before putting any fish in"

Are you saying that if one is setting up a new planted tank, one should cycle the tank first before putting any plants in the tank?

that just should be common sense.

plants in a tank thats cycling makes it cycle faster.
