Learning from mistakes is what we all do here to one extent or another. As long as we learn from them and don't repeat them, then we're well on our way to success!
Sounds to me like you're approaching things with the right attitude. I'm glad that you didn't let your first experiences with fish-keeping prevent you from trying again.

Check out the the sticky threads in the various sections of the forum (at the top of each page)---especially the one related to the beginner's section, and then you'll be well on your way to being a successful aquarium hobbyist!

Best of luck to you!

Welcome :) I agree with checking out the stickies, especially the ones at the top of the freshwater beginner's forum for cycling info and how to set up a successful tank.
