Answer 2

1. Females may or may not be able to coexist peacefully in the same tank depending on their temperaments. They are not schooling fish, and are still rather aggressive, but with enough room and many hiding spaces, they can learn to get along. There should never be exactly two female bettas in a tank together—a pecking order, a hierarchy, is necessary for them to live peacefully. With only two fish, one will be the bully and the other will be picked on. However, with three or more, a hierarchy is established.
2. It would depend on the size of the gold fish to know what size of a tank it needs.
3.for a betta to lead a happy life and live the maximum lifespan, as much as 35 litres (10 US gallons) is necessary
4. swordtails are livebearers so yes
5. particularly prone to Ich
6. No
7. Bettas originate in the shallow waters in Thailand (formerly called Siam, hence their name), Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and parts of China. They proliferate rice paddies, shallow ponds, and even slow moving streams.
8. labyrinth organ
9. Not enough air surface in a bowl, No filtration in a bowl,
They grow very fast and goldfish need at least 10 gals of water per fish.(goldfish grow to 6")!
10. Mosquito larva
11. bubble nest
12. 75 gallon tank
13. Carnivores
14. 4" to 6"
15. as long as the tank is large enough

Answer 3

1. yes depending on the fish 2.any size depending on the size of fish 3.not that big but no smaller then 3 gallons 4yes 5. any disease 6. would not recommend that 7. Cambodia, Thailand 8. there long fins and color 9. a bowl is not big enough will stress them and eventually they will die 10. dried worms, beef heart, glass worms etc they just love it 11. a nest he actually spits them in the nest and you have to remove the female because he will become aggressive. 12. 1 Oscar at least 55 gallons.13 carnivores 14.about 6 inches. 15. yes

Answer 4

a million. Bettas desire tropical water. If the ambient temperature of the room of their tank isn't interior the intense 70sF you desire a heater for optimal well being. My fish room continues to be interior the intense 70s to low 80w and that i do not use a heater, yet mot places have an basic tamp interior the intense 60s to low 70s, and a heater is wanted. 2. No. Starfish are surely been stated as "sea stars" now to brush aside that fantasy, even if the call hasn't quite ruled yet and all of us nonetheless say "starfish." 3. Nitrogen is a key portion of decomposition. The cycle is largely is nitrogen getting into the gadget to decompose waste, it really is chemically switched over through reaction with bacteria and flora, and ultimately released back as nitrogen interior the ambience. The nitrogen cycle interior the aquarium is the position fish produce waste. Nitrogen combines with the waste and produces ammonia. bacteria breaks down the ammonia to nitrite. more beneficial bacteria converts nitrite to nitrate. Anaerobic bacteria convert the nitrate to nitrogen gasoline which escapes the aquarium. flora also help get rid of nitrate and the nitrogen if recent. Too typically an aquarium is in worry-free words 1/2 cycled (stops on the nitrate) as there is not any bacteria eliminating the nitrate, and water differences are the commonly used solution to get rid of the nitrate. a lot of human beings use flora because the perfect step of the cycle in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. you note the whole cycle more beneficial in saltwater aquariums with deep sand beds, plenums, and stay rock, the position the quite denitrifying bacteria can flourish appropriately. a similar procedure should be seen in terrestrial settings the position animal waste enters the soil and the bacteria does a similar ingredient as defined interior the aquarium, merely interior the soil, with flora and anaerobic bacteria freeing the perfect product, nitrogen, back into the ambience. So actually the nitrogen cycle is the sequence of differences that nitrogen is going with the help of from the ambience, to decomposing cloth, it really is ultimately chemically altered through the bacteria, and released back into the ambience, the position the cycle starts back. 4. Gravel siphon is a tube attachment to a hose that permits one to suck waste from the gravel without sucking the gravel down the hose.
