Hello to everyone!
I've been away from fishkeeping for about 5 years and just got the bug again! I plan to setup a brand new 60 gallon (same dimensions as a standard 55g, just taller) freshwater tank in the next few weeks. My problem is that I have no idea what type of freshwater system to focus on at the moment. In the past I've kept various freshwater community fish in a 55g and my only specialty tank was a 20L with dividers for 4 male bettas. I'm not new to fishkeeping and I've also kept saltwater fish and reef tanks, so pretty much anything should be doable in freshwater. Any biotope specific tanks that you could suggest? Feel free to list any special items needed such as lighting, filtration, substrate, fish, plants, and such.
Thank you in advance for your help in trying to decide what to do with this bare tank.
