I myself would go with tropical
Marine are so much hard work
they are very pretty but also very expensive

and if you lose one its £30/£100 up the spout :-( :-(

Have a read as each require different ideal conditions,,,,,,,,also all fish dont live in harmoney with each other,,,,,,they attack and eat each other.

ask at the place where you intend to buy the fish,they will give sound advise,when to add fish to a new set up.whats required for water conditions,size of pump and filters,feeding ,heat etc,

Just wondered if anyone can give me any advice on whether to get Tropical or Marine fish for my new aquarium.

Decided to get into fish keeping but we are absolute beginners. Aquarium places say the big difference is obviously the cost, but has anyone got an aquarium who can advise.

I am completely stuck swaying between the two, my heart says get marine and my head says tropical. My grandaughter wants marine too cos of Finding Nemo and I think they are so colourful.

Any help greatly appreciated, we are going to pick up the aquarium, (equipped for marine or tropical), a 300 litre one, this afternoon.

Thanks a lot for any advice or suggestions
