Hi from Gold Coast Australia, new to fishkeeping, new to here, new to big tanks

[Lucifer0411]

A short but great journey so far.

Started with a skinny 7 foot tank I picked up from a yard sale which ended up being a dirted high tech planted nano tank.

Then only weeks later I come across a 10 foot 330 gallon tank so of i course I had to have it lol. No point slowly getting into the hobby

After taking 6 weeks to prepare it, I have it stocked now with all juveniles. Looking forward to the adventures ahead!

Nice man! Missed opportunity for an epic native tank but I see the attractions to exotics. Those clown loaches are gonna be sweet!

I have done some looking into Aussie natives for a future endeavour. Lots of research I need to do first though and what can and couldn't go together.
Murray cod, perches, barra, Southern Saratoga. What a mix.
