Hi,
I am looking at getting a fish tank for my baby and need some advice.
I am undecided between a 2ft of 4ft tank. Is the smaller tank worth while?
I would like to have several fish to make it visually stimulating etc.
Advice PLEASE

Cheers

Pat



Please, get the baby a crib.


Go with the bigger tank. Make sure to cycle it properly BEFORE adding fish
or you'll have dead fish soon...

Do a google search of fishless cycling...

Not necessarily - just don't go stupid and put 5 fish in, in one go!!!
Ease the fish in and let the cycle catch up...nice mild cycle then.
