    i justin got back into the hobby of freshwater aquariums about 2 years ago. i currently keep a 55 with freshwater angels, small cichlids, tetras, rainbows, and cory cats.
    my girlfriend keeps goldfish, small tetras, guppies, and cory cats in her 20.
    i've been looking for a good forum for aquarium folks.
    i hope this one is as good as i've heard.
    thanx for reading.

    Welcome to the forum Justin, Look forward to seeing some photos of the setups.

    -> not sure if you know this, but your girlfriend needs a larger tank (20 is too small for the goldfish...and goldfish are cool water and dependant upon kind they are can/will eat small tetras and guppies).

    The feeders will need a very large tank, ideally a pond.
