Hiya! I'm new to the forum and returning to the hobby after a few years away. My family kept a 20g long with tropicals when I was a child and I had a 20g tall with tropicals about 10 years ago.
A friend recently offered me a 29g w/ stand and everything I need to get started except aquascape and fish. He even put his 10" Oscar in it for 3 weeks to get it cycled!
Since I'm just re-entering the hobby after 10 years I'll have to do some research on the filter thats coming with the setup, but knowing him it's as close to top of the line as he could get. He's recently given his 28" Arowana (sp?), the big Oscar and a couple of 8" tall angels to the lfs to start a Cichlid tank in his 125g so thankfully I have a local mentor. However, never being one to put all my eggs in one basket I'll be picking all your brains for all the info I can get
