That's my problem...having read many suggestions to proper tank set up here and on other forums, I am quite confused. I need a list of goods to get me started. What kind of rocks? What kind of filter? what kind of plants? Our current set up allowed one to escape though I'm not sure how. How do I make the water deep enough and yet allow land for them that is not lifting them so close to the escape hatch? These are my basic questions. The Pet Club is a far distance to travel without a list.
