Also, can anyone reccomend things (decorations or animals) to put in it. And what size??? Im looking to spend less than 300 dollars for it all. I really cant decide on the fish, but I think Im gonna get a 20 gallon tank.

Not only that but can I keep it with a Snowflake Eel... I want to convert my tank from freshwater to Saltwater and want an exotic animal... Please help

So I have this male betta in this two gallon tank, and I love him a whole bunch, and I want to move him into this ten gallon that I'm setting up. What small freshwater animals could work well with him? I know it's probably not many since he's a fighter fish, but there's no chance in hell that other male bettas would be going into this tank. I like dwarf puffers a lot and think they're mighty cute. Has anyone ever had a community tank involving the two?

i have three mollys, one platy, and two catfish in my freshwater aquarium. I use purified tap water when i clean their tank, and decorations include some real coral and shells, but i think everything in there is either fake or from the ocean. Today i noticed a bunch of tiny little bean shaped animals at the bottom of the tank, and since my mollys and platy have already had babies that look nothing like these bean things, i figured it was catfish babies. Looking closer, the animals are clear, with what looks like a bean shape shell, and they move around using legs at one side of their shell. I tried to take a picture, but my camera couldn't focus in enough, so i'll just say they are about a millimeter long, and i can see their organs through their bodies and shells. They look kind of like clams, but i doubt i would have clams appear in my tank, since they would have to come from a parent clam, which i have never had, What the hell are these things and are they going to harm my fish?

they are the size of baby snails but appear to have little legs and move faster then any snail I have seen. They live in the gravel on the bottom of the tank and come out in the dark and stick to the glass. They appear to "hop" around.

If I don't find a fish that I like i'm converting over to saltwater aquriums also I would like for the fish to be agressive or if not one that I can have more than one of in the tank Thanks but no thanks I have alredy kept kribs and other dwarfs and those tetra also not a beginner and I own a 15 gal Thanks but no thanks I have alredy kept kribs and other dwarfs and those tetra also not a beginner and I own a 15 gal

My friends mother wants to get rid of her Plecostomus... Large sucker fish. As they have gotten older and larger they have become violent, killing any small fish she adds to the tank. So she offered to give them to me. and while I only will agree to take one... I Dont want to take on too much by taking both when they are each roughly a foot long (and have grown to two feet) and I ONLY HAVE a 30 gallon tank. which was also provided by his mother. Now between all of the equipment i understand that im going to be spending about a 100$ to get started with the pump, filter, bubble thingy, food gravel and such.... But my main concern is .....CAN I KEEP JUST THE ONE FISH? Some animals are verrryyyy attached to another pet they have spent all their time with. I dont have enough tank space for both! and should I get another fish to keep in there (not small but certainly not as big) to keep up the algea growth? ANY advice from an expierenced sucker fish or freshwater aquarium owner would be GREAT!!! thank you soooo much!
