Sorry to hear this Sean... I am also interested in starting this hobby.  I 
recently recieved a message from Carol on this subject. I was new so it was 
great news to me and I appreciated her efforts. I will go see if I can find 
it and post it here. It had some great information on preparing the tank and 
such. If it is of no use. So be it. However it was packed with information so 
maybe some will be helpful to you.
