Hey! Setting up a freshwater aquarium is such an exciting journey! One big tip I'd give is to start with a properly sized tank – bigger is often better for beginners since it's easier to maintain water quality. Don't forget to cycle your tank before adding any fish – it's crucial for their health! As for equipment, a good filter and heater are essential. When it comes to fish, go for hardy species like guppies, tetras, or danios to start. They're pretty forgiving for beginners. And remember, research is key – make sure you know the needs of any fish you plan to keep. Happy fishkeeping! 🐠🌿
