    Hey everyone new to the site. I've had several tropical fish tanks. I've been away from the hobby for a while but have recently set up my fresh water 29g tank again. I enjoy live bearers. Have a few mollies and some guppies in the tank now with some cardinal tetras. I'm also trying some real plants this time. I also have a 15g that I'm thinking about setting up for breeding. It's an extremely addictive hobby. I'll try and post some pics tomorrow. My tank light is off and I just did a cleaning so the water is a little murky;)

    Haha yeah I really love salt water tanks but I know it can be really expensive so I think I'll probably just stick to freshwater unless something fell in my lap I couldnt pass up.

    Welcome to 3reef!

    I found saltwater to be easier. Planted tanks cost just as much as a simple soft coral tank sometimes even more.
