T5 lightning which is actually for marine tanks, which means 2 strip lights one blue and one white output
Co2 will be added soon to furthermore encourage better plant growth
all my tank lights are on a timer, which are set for 12 hours on during the day and 12 hours off during the night
i feed them all once or twice a day
i fast all my fish one day out of the week, to prevent constipation (haven't had any issues with that so far)
all those tanks are established since a while now and have all 0 ammonia and of course 0 nitrite,
nitrAtes are anywhere from 5ppm for my marine tank to 20ppm on the other tanks
other fish which i have kept and have experience with
goldfish (all varieties)
anglefish
guppies
mollies (also all varieties)
tetras (from neon tetras to others)
common plecos
swordtails
african cichlids ( auratus, kenyi's, albion socolfi's, yellow labs)
fish i want to try my hands on later down the road
dwarf puffers
as far as marine goes, i definitely want to try my hands on corals, invertebrates and of course fish for a reef setup
