Freshwater Beginners A place where freshwater aquarium fish beginners can go to post their questions and hopefully get responses from those more experienced. Also check out the Freshwater Fish Beginner's Guide and Aquarium Setup Guides. Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

I recently bought one of those strong magnet glass cleaners...it is soooo nice to use and does a great job. Up til now i was using a scotch scrubber pad. Don't use that on a plexiglass tank!!

I love using microfiber clothes. They are really amazing, at what they can clean off with just a simple wipe. You can get a package of 8 for $5 in the auto section of walmart, and they also have a sponge that is covered in a microfiber weave for scrubbing bugs off of windshields. The great thing is that they won't scratch plastic tanks.

I have magnetic cleaners on three of my tanks and then I have an aluminium algae scraper for those hard to get algaes and I also have the typical sponge pad on a stick
