Hey there! I'm hoping people who are interested in getting into tropical fish tanks will find this blog and get a lot of useful info out of it. I've made a lot of mistakes starting up, and spent a lot of money on fish which didn't survive very long. A lot of it could have been avoided if I knew what I know now.
Regardless, here's my first post which includes a Youtube video I created explaining what a "wet-dry" filter is (a.k.a.-- sump) and what it does. I think it's important to understand the process of chemical, biological, and mechanical filtration systems...which are all part of your filter you set up for the fish tank. Enjoy the video!

After choosing the perfect tank, you'll need to consider whether you would like to create a freshwater or saltwater environment for your future fish. You'll need to read about particular types of fish and which environment they thrive in to help you make this choice. At this point in your decision making process, you should also start choosing the fish for your tropical fish tank. There are more aspects to this to consider than simply beauty. Certain types of fish cannot thrive together in the same tank. Some fish can survive in either saltwater or freshwater, but many varieties are specific to only one type of water. Some fish do well on their own while others need to be a part of a group of fish. Make these decisions carefully, as some tropical fish can be highly expensive to obtain.
