Fish tank accessories?

5 July 2010 57 views 3 Comments

Hello,

I am trying to assemble all of the things that go with a 15 or 20 gallon fish tank (to save money and get good quality items), but I don't know what is a good name brand or price to pay. That being said, does anyone know what is a good...

Filter
Heater
Air pump
Hoods and lighting

Any info would be very much appreciated!

    FishChannel.com has a downloadable start up a tank shopping list that you might find helpful, as well as a downloadable list of aquarium maintenance supplies. Here are the links:

    If you have a decent filter and some kind of opening on top of the tank, you won’t need an air filter (my opinion). I suggest going to craigslist and finding these things used, and once you have the money, buy better ones new. Petco can be expensive, but their supplies are pretty good and last a while.

    If you live near a college town, now is a great time to look on craigslist since most people don’t want to bother moving the fish tank and will sell for really cheap. Good Luck!
