Mini Casa made this casa to celebrate My First Fish Tank. My First Fish Tank didn't make it and isn't affiliated with Mini Casa.
My First Fish Tank is a saltwater aquarium blog with beginner guides to setup, maintenance, fish, corals and gear.
Saltwater tank setup and maintenance guides for newcomers to the hobby.
The Start Here page compares three beginner saltwater builds, the DeskMate 4.8, the HelloReef 15 and the JBJ RF-45, on cost, space, guidance, maintenance and how flexible each tank is about livestock.
Visit linkA week-by-week path that starts with planning and equipment, then moves through cycling, adding a cleanup crew and clownfish, and judging when the tank is ready for a bubble-tip anemone.
Visit linkThe blog is about saltwater, so it goes deep on one hobby instead of general fishkeeping. Guides are grouped by the job a reader needs done: beginner guides, livestock guides, maintenance guides and gear guides, plus a library of tank builds. The calculators cover tank volume, sand bed quantity, reef salt mix and the electricity cost of running a tank. A long Saltwater Tanks Demystified series walks through water chemistry, RODI and salt, lighting and heating, filtration and sumps, and maintenance in order.
