Congrats, I am a few weeks behind you. My 55Gallon tank has only 10 snails.
Today I put in 15 more, and 5 hermits. So, in a couple of weeks (if
everything goes okay) I plan to get my first fish there. Probably "Nemo"
too

Again, Congrats!

Yeehaa!
After 6 months of reading, preparation and setting up I got my first 2
fish today. Two little tank bred ocellaris clowns about 4 months of age in
a 6 foot tank. I spent an hour acclimatting them and then fed them an hour
or two later and they are now asleep with lights out and full bellies.
They seemed quite settled and calm but have only "checked out" a small
portion of the tank. I spent money on a feed ring b/c I thought two tiny
fish would have trouble finding the food but that was a waste of $8 AUS as
they just gobbled everything in sight once it floated down.

Now I can't wait until lights on in the morning.

And I thought freshwater fish keeping was addictive!
