Hi:
I am a newbie and I am planning to setup a 20 gallon freshwater. never really had fish before, except a little goldfish bowl when i was a kid (the fish always jumped out, and/or died). no filter, etc.
I am intrigued by the acrylic aquariums. 20 gallon seems like a good size to start out, not too big, not too small.
I thought I would buy the tank, filter, gravel, 1 live plant, the rest fake, get it setup and then add fish later.
Any thoughts on petco's Seaclear aquarium and Marineland filters (I want the best filter, something that will do the best job cleaning tank, money is not a factor).
Here are links to the aquarium and filter:
