looking at setting up new tank

[kien]

Try this site. There's a lot of great discussions on all the topics/subjects you listed. Can't find something with the search function? No problem! Just start a new thread and ask your question. :-). Places like that are much more valuable than books In my humble opinion. Books typically have one opinion where forums can present many more. Although this could be a bad thing too I suppose.. .

At any rate, good luck and remember to have fun :-D
