Monthly welcome, links, and FAQ pointer

Welcome to alt.aquaria and rec.aquaria.freshwater.*, the oldest places
for aquarium info on the internet!

We have an extensive FAQ, located at http://faq.thekrib.com. The
beginner's section is http://faq.thekrib.com/begin.html and
http://faq.thekrib.com/begin-cycling.html explains why new tanks are
hard to start. There is a lot of valuable information there on
everything from starting your first fishtank to fish selection to
growing live plants. Please have a look at the FAQ to see if your
questions are answered there before you post.

If you're wondering where all the posts went, many regulars from the
Usenet aquarium groups have partially or completely moved to:
http://groups.google.com/group/The-Freshwater-Aquarium.

There are a number of very valuable internet resources on fish and
