i have been wanting to get into the hobby for a long time but havent taken the plunge. i bought a 29gal tank with oak stand off craigslist for $50. it came with a tetra whisper 30 filter, hydor 100watt heater, aquaculture mk-1504 air pump. hood, light fixture with zoo med t8 (not sure how old the bulb is) and accessories like nets, syphon ect. im not sure what kind of setup i am going to run but i have been doing alot of research. i would love a live plant tank with a few fish. any advice on the equipment i have so far?
