i recently got a new 10 us gallons aquarium. i have another fish tank, with freshwater fish in it. i want to buy one clownfish for my 10 gallons tank. err yeh i know , when he will grow bigger, 10 gallons is not a good size for a clownfish.. but i might save money and get a bigger tank for him. Now.. can you please help me, what is everything i need for a clownfish to be happy? (temp.,how much salt etc) except anemone, he can live without it! :P I wont buy it until I'm completly sure about everything, soo go ahead :D thankies xx Fishmad, my intention is not to get a wild clownfish! pfft i was always wondering if "golden rule" is 1 inch of fish per gallon then why not a 4 inch clownfish in 10 gallons?

I bought a green spotted puffer and was told at the store that it was a fresh water fish. After researching I have now figured out that they go from being a brackish fish to full marine when it is an adult. I don't know anything about marine salt or anything. At the store they told me that they just add aquarium salt every couple of weeks. They obviously didn't know what they were doing and now I feel bad because I don't want my fish to suffer. He has been in freshwater his whole life so how should I go about slowly adding marine salt. How much? How often? Based on the fact that at different times in their lives they apparently need different water conditions I am just really confused as to where to begin. Thank you so much in advance! So it is okay to bring the levels up that high in such a short amount of time with the fish in there? That won't put the fish in shock or anything? Once it is there should I keep it in those conditions forever or add more over the years? Thanks for the answers.

So, recently I decided I wanted to get a tropical aquarium for my room, so I'll probably be getting it for my birthday. One of my neighbors has a small shark type thing in his aquarium, it's really cute but his is freshwater. I can't find any sites that will help me, but basically I just want to know if there are saltwater sharks small enough for a fish tank that will go in my room, and what they eat and how long they live. Also, if anyone knows how long yellow saltwater puffers (I don't know what they're actually called, sorreh) live, and what they eat, I hope you'll tell me. Thankies.

So, I bought four small angel fish, (about two inches long each) I planned on putting them in a fifty-five gallon tank, and since it's hard for me to get fish because of the small town I live in, I had to get them too early, and put all four of them in a ten gallon tank, (Which I keep cycled) The day after I got them, two of them died. For. . no apparent reason. I checked the water. The PH is fine, the water is soft, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia levels are all fine. Nothing is wrong with the water. . they just died. None of them seemed to stressed out. They started swimming all around the tank within three hours. I feed them blood worms (Dried) frozen brine shrimp, and cichlid flake food. They usually spit anything they eat out. And, I always have to get the food out they don't eat. Which, is every time I feed them. The first and second fish died within five hours from eachother. One was marble, and one was a zebra. I don't know if that makes a difference. . but I'll put it here anyway. Just incase. Before I got the fish, I did oodles of research on them (As before I get anything living, or that requires great care) I've been keeping fish for quite some time now, and I have no idea what could have happend. I bought a twenty gallon tank today to put them in, though I haven't put them in it yet, I've yet to even set up the tank, yet cycle it properly. So within a few days, they should be in a twenty gallon. And, soon enough in a fifty five. One of the two that is left, I think he has something wrong with him. His slime coat is actually visible. I suppose it's his slime coat. . But it's hanging on his body. And his fins are a bit short. I forgot what fins they're called, the ones on his side, that he uses to move around. xD I have a few fake amazon sword plants, and one real one in the tank. I have an "AquaClear" fliter. And regular fish aquarium gravel. The lighting is meant for an aquarium, it's more of a fluorescent looking light. What should I do about the living fish, whose slime coat is. . weird? And, any suggestions to why the two Angel fish died? Also. . The two that died weren't a pair. Both fish that died, were each "Paired" with one of the fish that is still living. Thank you to anyone who can answer my questions, and took the time to read this! Apparently you people don't know how to read. . or pay attention. I DO NOT have the fifty-five gallon tank yet. I found a twenty gallon tank in good condition at a sale today. And yes, there is not a fish shop for forty miles from my house. So, they were in the bag for a good thirty-forty minutes. And, I've never heard of "Old tank syndrome" something I'll have to look in to. I clean the tank regularly. Also, have none of you heard of "Safe start" products that "instantly cycle your tank" it makes tap water into water that fish can live in. It says a day, but I always wait a few days. And make sure the water is set. And, one of you seemed to know what was wrong with the fish that is alive, and have failed to actually tell me what it was, or how to treat it. .

I bought my nephew a large Aquarium and all the necessities for a troical freshwater setup. I let the tank cycle for a month and it's all ready to go. He wants a Cichlid and wants one that is fairly easy to take care of.One preferably that doesn't require lower PH levels and/or soft water hardness.He wants a cichlid that is hardy like a Jack Dempsey or an Oscar but he doesn't want an actual Jack Dempsey or Oscar.Could someone please give me the names of some cichlids that are less complicated to care for and good for a beginner? Thanks to all that offer advice/comments.
