Hello Friends

[Justjoshuasd]

I got a 37 gallon freshwater fish tank for my birthday two months ago and I’ve become obsessed. Looking forward to reading all of your very informative comments.

Welcome! It can be addicting. What's your favorite fish so far?

Welcome to the Forum... remember start slow or you will end of with over 20 tanks in 6 months or sooner

Welcome! Proceed with caution, the people on here are very good at tricking you into more tanks.

Welcome to Fishlore! What is the stocking? Have you entered the world of live plants yet?

Welcome! What kind of fish do you have? If they're small, try putting a ping pong ball in there for them to play with. But don't do that if you have big fish, they might swallow the ball. Maybe you could put a mirror in there, too. You might get a fun reaction, depending on the fish.

Honestly, live plants are much better at stimulating a fish than most toys IMO. I've found that my betta would rather swim through a bunch of plants and frolic rather than playing with a ball. Just my .02

Sailfin Mollies! Unfortunately, I now have about 50 fry I don't know what to do with. Oh, and I love the Columbian Tetras. They are very docile except when they eat!

I already had to buy a 3.5gal for the baby fry from my sailfin molly and then I bought a 20gal for a friend so I could off load some more of the fry. Boy this hobby quickly got very expensive!
