    Hello everyone,

    I am just popping to say that I am new here....

    I am completely new to the whole fish thing. For my first tank I bought a Boyu TL550 running in "tropical mode"

    I've had the tank for about 3 months now and I am completely hooked on it! :bigsmile:

    My current fish list:

    5 x Clown loach
    2 x Black kuhli loach
    4 x Zebra loach
    1 x Leopard plecostomus
    4 x Variety platty

    I've been thinking about getting a bigger tank but that will be for all the "weird" and strange fish... but I am still investigating a bit on that.

    I will attach a picture of my current setup... and yes...you are seeing plastic plants...but those will hopefully all be replaced with real plants this weekend. :bigsmile:

    Hi and welcome.

    Appears you like your bottom feeder fish?

    (I'm pretty sure someone will inform you soon that your tank is a bit crowded, and far too small for the plec.

    Thank you for the comments.

    The pleco is currently about 7cm but when he gets to big I will be giving him to a friend of mine with a bigger tank.

    I love the bottom feeders... they are quite fun to watch! :bigsmile:

    I am open to any suggestions or advice from you guys as I am new to this and quite inexperienced at this. :p
