Hello
Hello, people! My name is Brian Goldstein and I am 10 years old. Please put up with me I am new to fishes. Other interests I have at Mario kart, star wars, and video games. My daddy thinks that it is very good for me to be getting into what he calls my "hobby" and has bought me a 240 i think aquarium with a dry wet filter or something. I took the hose and filled it up with water than I put a nemo and 3 dories in it(sorry I don't know what they are called) and then I put in a large fish that was I tiggerfish I think and he was all spotted. They all died for some reason. What should I do?

They died because your tank was not ready for fish and if you are using tap water by the sound of it, you have to treat it. Did you add salt at lease?
Please read the stickies on how to run saltwater and read this link and do home work on the hobby before spending more money. http://saltaquarium.about.com/od/sta...n10steps_5.htm |

Dr. Reef at ur service

welcome to the hobby but u made a few mistakes.
u need few more things before u can actually start getting fish, read through the sticky forums on here and get some knowledge before attempting again. Good luck.

That's odd. You weren't 10 a couple weeks ago when you decided to out of the blue message one of the site admins and start throwing insults
