a 100 gal in the L-room I have a 10 gal in my b-room, a 5 gal in the bathroom, another 5 gal in the baby's room, a 50 gal in the dining room, another 10 gal in the kitchen, and a 25 gal in the master b-room. My parents like the ocean.... i guess that's why we live on the beach. some are salt, some are fresh.... but do you think that this is like so wired?? My friends think that it's cool.

I have a 10 gal aquarium on an old vanity (like 4 years old). I have not gotten the table wet (i think) but it seems to be bowing in the middle. It's in my b-room, so should i move it out or just get another table, or is it fine where it is? The bowing isn't bad, i just noticed it, it's been there for 2 months.

I recently purchased a crowntailed betta fish about a month ago. He started showing signs of boredom and was nipping his fins, so I decided to get him some stimulation and bought an african dwarf frog. They both have plenty of room in their tank , but I am afraid for my frog's health. My betta has never shown aggression until now. He is constantly flaring and nipping at this poor little frog every chance he gets, and I'm afraid I will have to separate the two. I was told that they were compatible tankmates, but I guess I was proven wrong. Will my betta eventually calm down and accept my frog as a tankmate? Or is he going to keep this behavior up? I really don't want to have to separate them, but I don't want anybody to get hurt. I've had this frog for about 2 weeks now and lately only within the past few days has the aggression been getting really bad. My frog has some hiding places and stays on the bottom of the tank, but I'm still worried. Is my betta going to shape up?

My 10 gal in my b-room is filled to the brim and is on this old vanity that I've had since i was 12. I was looking at it this morning, and i saw that it was bowing (bending) towards the middle. It's been there for 2 months, and i don't think that i have gotten it wet, but should I move my aquarium anyway? I still want to know how much it would weigh?

She told me that a 5 gallon aquarium would hold 10-15 fish and that all i had to do was add water and put the fish in and they would be ok. I bought 8 fish. Since then , I discovered that this was totally bad information. One fish has died (coulda been sick anyways cuz he died in 1 day) and I removed one fish. So now I am down to 6. I since took back the 5 gallon and bought a 10. I have the six fish in about 7 gallons of water, I kept the filter cartridge that I was using in the five, put it in a bigger filter pump, and I had added some Cycle solution. Right now I have 4 neon tetras, 1 glowlight tetra, which I will be returning since the lady failed to mention it was a schooling fish, and 1 red zebra danio. I need to get a few more of those, but i don't know how long to wait. Please give me any suggestions that you can! Thanks!

My by's silver dollar died today. He got caught in one of the fixtures in the tank. Does anyone know the life expectency for this type of fish. He has some red devils and irridescent sharks that he has had for 13 years. If you have info on them as well it would be appreciated.

What about the bio-wheel in filter -- should it be changed now that I'm swiching to freshwater? I'm worried about any deposits affecting the Ph levels.

The fish in question has been at the top of the tank a lot for the past 2 days. The fish is not dead, because when i put food in the tank it swims to the food and eats so I'm thinking maybe it's sick.

i bought two of the goldfish last night at the pet store that had the fluttery fins and tails (not the just plain ol eighty cent ones...if that will make a difference)

they acted fine last night in the fish bowl i put them in, but when i got up this morning, they were at the top of the water 'drinking air' so to say. that was around 730. its now 1130 and they are still doing this.

what is wrong and how do i correct it?

I've 2 goldfish, they're about 7cm in size and they're currently in a round bowl (not covered or filtered) which holds about 13 litres. After a water change, the water gets cloudy within a few days. I've tried feeding them less (they aren't impressed with this) and it still hasn't changed. I changed their food to flakes, didn't help. I have them in my bedroom (is this the problem, they're not in direct sunlight) and was wondering if a filtered, rectangular tank would improve the problem. I hate seeing them swimming in the mist! Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks

Does the male and female connect to mate, does the male release sperm into the water? Why do the males nip or bite at the dark spot on the females belly? I can't seem to find the answer anywhere, please help!

Basically, I'm going to be gone from december 16 to January 16. What kind of fish can I have where I can leave them alone with some of those 14 day food things for that month and they will still be alive when I come back.
