last time i asked this question i didn't give enough info. so i'll ask it again. i have a 60 litre fish bowl which is new and i recently got 3 goldfish. but my water in the fish bowl has started to get a bit clowdy. i have now got 4 plants and it has got a bit better. but, if it happens again what can i do. brcause i don't want to buy more plants. i feed my fish once a day and clean the fish bowl regulally. also the fish bowl i've got is a biOrb.(if you've ever heard of it) my fish seem happy now but i don't want them to get ill if the water becomes clowdy again :*( !!!!!!

I have a 2.5 gallon tank that I used for a terrarium but the plants are dead and I've always wanted fish. I want to know all the items I'd need, good fish to put in a tiny tank and How much care they need. I also want to know if it would be ok to set them on my desk beside my computer.

Since 3 weeks ago, I realised that some my fishes scales turn yellow. I've changed the water twice and they are still the same. What may have cause this to happen ?

I am new to fish keeping and have learned a lot on here...Thanks to everyone that has answered my questions...but I have one more. I have a 29 gallon fish tank with 3 goldfish. I was at the pet store today and was told to buy a bigger filter I am using a topfin for a 30 gallon right now and bought a 40 gallon filter today. My question is, is it ok to use both? will to much filtration hurt the water levels (ph, nitrates)? I understand i don't really need both but if I have them I am thinking I should use them. Thank you

I'm not sure what to do. I don't know what they are because the plant was labeled with a big long scientific name. Basically, I got them Sunday, planted them in sand and added water conditioner. My plants are in my 2.5 gallon aquarium and I have a 10 watt flourescent light bulb that i leave on 10 hrs a day. The water conditioner had phosphate buffer in it which I learned later was bad for plants so I took out as much water as I could, 80-85%, refilled it with regular tap water and put in water conditioner (takes out heavy metals, chlorine, and chloroamines) that didn't contain phosphates. Now when I look at my plants, the leaves are turning brown. I don't know what is wrong or what to do.

I just got my betta it is completely healthy and bright colored. I got a little bowl for it, normal size betta bowl. I put little rocks and a little bit larger colorful rocks in the bowl. There is also a live plant floating on the top of the tank, which is especially for water.
My betta was active yesterday but today, when I changed the water, it started acting weird. I left the water out for about 1 and a half days. But just in case I put a little tiny drop of water dechlorinator, then right away put my fish in.
Now while IM writing all I see is him on the floor of his bowl.
He literally goes pretty much under the bigger sized rocks and kinda digs into them and sits on the bottom. Comes up for air and food, but is on the floor opening and closing his mouth fast. He looks like he has a hard time breathing. Occasionally he goes on top of the floating plant and looks fine but then again digs under the bigger sized rocks.
PLEASEEEE HELP ! im not sure what to do

I would like to change it to a saltwater fish tank. I have heard that salt water tanks are a lot more difficult to maintain and keep the fish alive .. and more expensive (?) .. Could you tell me a few reasons that saltwater fishtanks require so much more time and skill than freshwater tanks? Thank you ! :)

I just got it for my 55 marine fish-only tank. I'm concerned that since I got it at such a reasonable price at petco that it sucks. Anyone know?
