hey folks! my name is aj and im new to the whole aquarium/fish scene. my interest was piqued by a friend at work and i got a 3.5 gallon for my girlfriend for xmas. now that we have that one, we have to get a bigger one and SOON. were thinking about a 20 gallon or so but we really have no idea. for the time being we will start with fresh water, but definitely plan to add a salt water biocube as soon as we feel comfortable with the whole process of water changes and such. i look forward to learning a lot here!

Welcome to the site....... please feel free to ask any thing you need to know there are some very knolegable people here on both FW anmd SW tanks. IMO get the biggest tank you can afford, the bigger the tank the lest the work. Look around for a used tank and save a coupel of bucks, its the green thing to do.

Bigger is always better. Once you get the 20 you'll want a 30, then a 55, then a 75 then...

Welcome!

Welcome aboard, and from bigger and bigger it gets to be more and more MTS. multiple tank syndrome.
