[HybernaTe]

---

hello guys,

just finished my my custom living room furniture with an aquarium which is made of 1/4 glass (120cm x 50cm x 30.5cm)

i have a few questions:
* whats first thing to do? (water, chlorine, etc)
* what accessories to buy? (lights, thermometer, breather, others)
* where to buy aquarium stuffs?
* what fish? (i want a fish that lives long & doesn't grow much)

thanks merry xmas

first of all decide of what fish you want, e search s google or sa mga isda forum...
then after which you would know what setup filter and fishes to buy.
They also said that the fishes will also depend partly on the owners characteristic.

here are some of my suggestions based from your requirement:
cichlids ( research well since daghan kaayo ni siya lain2 na location and type)
flowerhorn ( a mixed bred fish that is very responsive to the owner and also flaunts its beauty without question)
