Bonjour,

My wife and I just arrived in the capital and we have decided to try a new hobby. We just bought our first aquarium and we will be looking for advice as well as sharing our experiences.

We have a 29 gal fresh water tank. It's day 4 for our tank and we are waiting for the nitrite and nitrate to do their thing.

We cant wait get our first fish

Thank you for having us in your group.

Welcome to hobby. A 29  gallon is a great size to start with.  The hardest part is usually being patient during the cycling process but it's worth it in the long run.Before you know it you'll be planning your fish list and thinking about a second tank. Good luck with the cycle.
