So I started a 40 gallon breeder setup in April its been a big learning curve. So first fish was a bi color angel fish from Petco . I lost the fish I couldn't get it to eat . So that was my first mistake and the second was a Diamond goby. The store didn't tell me they were jumpers so I lost it. But I have been doing a lot more studying before making anymore mistakes. I have two clowns a fairy wrass and a lawnmower bleaney and a gramma. all is well doing good learning a lot here and on YouTube.
