Hi all:
We have relocated from The Netherlands to Pasadena , Texas...and for many years we have had our 'old school' fishtank .
My Wife has expressed interest in having an invertebrate tank this time.
This is what we used to have (old youtube film)
Old those fish grew up in this tank that we had for 10 years from new to
I went to JCB on their 11 year anniversary and am quite blown away at how far development has gone...
We want to probably go with a 650 3 view Red tank...be it new or maybe used ...depending on what makes more sense...I was lucky to find someone who took my entire tank over when we came to Texas...so if anyone is in same boat we are willing to do that as well.
But while I was about to make the purchase...I realized how far out of synch on information I was that I did not go on with it just yet.
I'd like to inform myself of the new techniques again..
As stated I am like old school wet/dry , ozone, skimmer, set up with a covered top kind of guy...and most of the stuff I saw there was totally different.
I do not want to kill off any of my livestock unless i am at a good place knowledge wise.
Any recommendations for literature I should follow, read up on ...and also maybe something light as my son who is now 12 wants to take care of the tank..
Thank you all for your reactions and advise
Regards
Glenn van Kooijk
