On a slight wim, we ended up buying a 64 litre fish tank. I have after lots of reading ordered some ammonia which came today and I will start a fishless cycle. I have also ordered off amazon an API test, but it hasn't arrived yet. Does anyone have any idea how much ammonia I should be putting in the tank, and do I keep putting it in everyday until I get the fish (not sure once I have done the big water change if I need to do anything else until I get the fish?)
Does anyone have any advice on what fish to get, I presume that I still just start off with a few fish and then build up the tank. Was thinking of getting about 6 neon tetras and maybe either 6 guppies or cherry barbs. Does this sound about right? Is there any good fish to get that don't need to school so I can just get 2. I think the tank will probably be full then.
Sorry for all the questions, just want to get it right. Thanks in advance.
