My New/first Tank(5 Gallon)

Yikes! I don't think anyone was calling you stupid. CanadianJoeh was just trying to explain that putting fish in an uncycled tank can & will kill fish.

Knowing about, and fully understanding the nitrogen cycle is the most important thing when keeping fish.

 

You are correct, I do not know of the nitrogen cycle. I DID DO 4 MONTHS OF RESEARCH BEFORE I GOT MY FISH!! And I don't care a what you think of me because I know how to get a life an live it...!!! So just leave my life alone and get one of your own!! (srry if I am being mean, I get that way when I get offended bout someone pretty much calling me stupid!)

Please take a step back, and understand that all we want to do is help you....

I did not even come close to calling you stupid. My apologies for the misunderstanding.

Here on Fishlore, our goal is plain and simple, we strive to spread as much educational information regarding fishkeeping as possible.

As a friendly reccomendation, you should go and read up on the nitrogen cycle. You will find much more success in fishkeeping if you know the basics.

 

Everyone relax. This is a friendly fish forum. I have had walstead heavily planted Betts and shrimp tanks if the OP wants to chat.
