I want to start a big community tank but not sure if my betta will cooroporate.. i'm thinking if I buy a small goldfish and leave it in for a day or so I will be able to tell how the betta acts and if it will be good with other fish.. or is there a way to tell by its behavior by itself?

I have experience with freshwater fish and this problem completely baffles me. I have 2 rainbow sharks, 1 angel, and my tetra keep disappearing. I don't find them dead or sucked into the filter. Just completely gone. I've had this happen with lots of tetra. Currently there's a school of 7 or so that's survived. I just bought 8 neon tetra 3 days ago. After the 1st night there were 3 left. Now there's only 1. Please give me some idea what's happening to them. Thanks

So I work at a pet store....and I was wondering about beta fish. Why are all of the bowls that we sell so small? I mean, I know I should know this since I work there, I just didn't know if there was a huge difference between them and other fish that need bigger tanks.

Help save "Stinky". He gets his gallon-size bowl cleaned every 4 days and is fed 4 pellets of food twice a day.

by craft sand i mean i bought it at a craft store and it came with some seashells. it does not say anything about having any chemicals or anything in it. i think its "purpose was to use it to decorate those glass vases you get at walmart or the dollar tree and put the sand in it and the sea shells on top. does anyone know if this is safe for my tank? i teested it in a small glass container and it seems to settle pretty good. water a bit cloudy but am sure it will clear up with filter.

My male veil-tail betta lives alone in a five-gallon filtered tank with a silk-plant and a mountain ornament that has no really rough edges.
There have never been any other fish with him.
Today I noticed his tail is torn in the lower portion--he was fine yesterday.
While I'm pretty sure this isn't fin-rot, I'm looking for a second opinion and maybe some answers as to why his tail is suddenly ripped.

You get two views of his tail (sorry, little bugger wouldn't hold still.)
