Hello everyone
We bought a tank for my autistic son as he is obsessed with Nemo and Dory, he and us absolutely love it but man it’s been hard work to maintain.

Welcome to the community! It's nice that you jumped into the hobby for your son. While it seems daunting right now, give it a year or so, and you'll see that it'll become pretty dang easy. I've noticed once you have a really established tank that it can almost run itself.
