It's almost a 3 way tie between Goldfish,Betta .... and Oscar. I'll go Oscar ... by a small margin. No other fish gets placed in COMPLETELY undersized tanks more (based on adult size potential versus actual tank volume),gets fed more improperly,underfiltered,improper water changes (volume...

Any and all fish can survive (and thrive) without a filter ... but you are going to be doing a lot of water changes to maintain water quality. A filters main job is to breakdown and convert waste to less harmful elements or compounds .... you can do the same through extensive water changes...

Shipping being prohibitive (cost,possible damage),the best place to look is shops specializing in marine fish/invertebrates... they usually come closer on stocking/special ordering acrylic tanks than a general pet shop. If you feel "handy",and are the DIY type,you could reasonably build your...

I believe it's AquariumLife.com ... Nope,it's Aquariumlife.net http://www.aquariumlife.net/

Depends entirely on the state/province .... generally,though, it depends on whether you meet the areas "fishing" requirements (licenses,age,etc.) because the law is geared more to resale/commercial usage and whether the species is of "special interest" (rare,endangered,at risk,etc.). If under...

What type of cichlid? If they are not fertilized,don't move them.It's highly doubtful the male will finish the process once interrupted. It would also be unlikely (but not impossible) that the parents would care for the eggs after all the commotion of moving everyone,and more likely that they...

What kind of Puffers? ... other than South American Dwarf and Indian Pea Puffer all are either "brackish" or "saltwater".They need the addition of salt to their water. What type of filtration did you try to keep them with ? Water changes? Without either ammonia builds up. She did treat the water...

1) No clue ... don't go near it. Just know there are a few places it approaches 5 miles. 2) Gills and Labyrinth organ .... don't recall the "fancy" names. 3) I have charts for it ... and I "eyeball" them.You did ask how I do it. 4)900+# Sturgeon are pretty big,so are Arapaima,Mekong Giant...

No... not a good idea. There are paints for this purpose (aquatic submersion),but they aren't something you commonly find (and are cost prohibitive) ... so anything you find in any common store is going to be HIGHLY toxic.

Larger is relative to what you've kept before... A Dwarf cichlid of some type would be a good centerpiece fish ... German Blue Ram has a wider tolerance for water chemistry than most and the Electric Blue Ram is a good centerpiece that want outgrow a 20g. You could house a pair of either of...

I run 5 tanks in the house with multiple filters and heaters,plus lighting and other equipment .... and I do track my electric bills (rural co-op = higher prices for electricity). I've seen only a $1 (average) monthly increase total over the last 3 years... and I keep adding tanks. If the...

Sounds like a 20gHigh .

Sand/rocks for marine environments as sold through a shop are distinctly different (you can use most decor designed for freshwater in saltwater with more buffering,but NOT specific decor for saltwater in freshwater). The difference is in the buffering capacity you want high alkaline pH (above...

Yes ... they grow back. Just keep up the water quality and a good diet and things should go well until you get the 55g in a couple of weeks. Just keep an eye out for stress from the tight confines. If you keep water quality perfect there should be no need for salt or any medications.

If it is one of the Java Fern or Anubias species ..... then no special care needed. Your lighting should be fine,and if you have no algae problems now you won't have any because of the plant.

In the absence of a filter .... it's water change,water change,water change to keep anything healthy and water quality good.About 25% every other day. Some of the fish suited to that small of an environment are smaller Killifish species (may be hard to find),Dario dario (takes a little...
