I’m curious at taking care of fish. I am a terribly irresponsible person, but I feel if I have a food self cleaning and self cleaning tank, I can take care pretty easily with enough alarms to remind me.

Which equipment, fish, and setup do I need for what I’m aiming to do?

Let me know in the comments!

    Reading this over, I made it sound like fish are more fragile than they are. AHH! With the basic rig above, the usual freshwater fish from the pet store will be tough enough, even if you fuck and forget to feed 'em for a week. Don’t overthink this. Big tank, if ya can, thick bottom layer, let it sit and circulate, you’ll be good to start.

    Happy you got me talking about this. My wife just “demanded” I ditch my busted mini-fridge and put a fish tank in. And I have a 10G GTG! (Well, it needs some cleaning…)
