One hobby I have been wanting to get into for a while has been that of fishkeeping. For my birthday, I got a 23 gallon tank from my wife and in-laws. I'm going to use this blog to keep a journal of the progress of the tank.

I've decided for now to go with a freshwater setup. Ultimately I will like to have a saltwater or reef tank setup. However, I would like to get started with this tank and see how things go with that. I'm going to start off with a fishless cycling and plan on probably having a fairly small amount of fish in the tank. I may also end up with a semi-planted tank after having it running for a while.

Along with the aquarium I also got gravel, a wood stump decoration, air pump, airline, bubble curtain, and a nice stand for the tank to sit on.

I'm a couple of days behind in updating this, so I'll post a few updates today on the progress that I've made.
