Went to pets at home today so the baby could have a look at the rodents, and ended up thinking it would be nice to get a fish tank. It's something we've often thought about but never really researched. DH wants a wall-sized tropical tank ultimately and I've wanted some blue tetras since I was tiny, but I guess we would start small with a couple of simple fish. Are goldfish the easiest?
What do I need to know? Do they tend to get sick a lot? I remember me and my mum taking some of our goldfish to the vet when I was little which felt ridiculous but I guess it's normal? Should we get a tank cleany fish? Real plants? Any good websites so I can read up? Thanks!
