My 5 Gallon Fish Tank (Guppy,Guppy Babies,Zebra,Tetra Neon and Yellow Snail).

Good for Beginners who want to start an aquarium,

What you need :

Tank - 3 Gallon to 10 gallon's for beginners.

Filter - Internal filters / Bottom filters are good at this stage.

Heater - Depends on the place. If your leaving in a cool place then you might need to buy it. But if your in a room temp place then no need. Just make sure to monitor the temp of the tank.

Thermometer - to monitor the temp of your tank. Good for temp between 22'C to 32'C max.

Gravel - White or Red are good. Mixing it will bring good sight in your tank.

Wood - (optional) little wood will be just fine.

Aquatic plants - I recommend to atleast have 1 or 2 plant inside. Benifits of giving oxygen.

Fish - for beginners its better to choose small fish, like Zebra,Guppy and Tetra fish as they can adjust easily on your tank temperature and dosent need much oxgyen (no need to add pump). You can add these 3 type of fish all of them in tank. Make sure to keep them pair to one another.

Fish Food - Dont use other brands that are cheaper. Prefer TETRA MIN for better and healthier fish.

If you do have questions please leave your comments.

  • @Allray15. Totally kool aquarium. What are you going to do with all of the cute babies? I bet it feels good to get your fish to breed like that. That lets you know that you're doing things right.

  • yah, they all grown up. unfortunately, i have to give some to my relatives and friends since i dont have space to care them. anyways, its really good breeding them!

  • what did you do to the fry?
