I think the biggest thing you have to have as a "newbie" is never to rush your setup of the tank. Cycling is a very big thing. And cycling a tank is actually allowing the water to acclimate itself and what you add to the tank is part of this. Have you decided if you are going to have a freshwater setup or saltwter(marine). If it is marine then do you want to have a reef tank or will it be for fish? Fish can be very fragile in a new setup so dont despair if you may lose them. It happened to me and it happens to everyone. This is a learning experience and the larger the tank the easier it is to maintain. And ask questions. Any question helps even if you think it might be dumb. Best of Luck.
