The only kind of policy my stores offer is for an exchange or refund if the fish dies within 14 days of you buying it. However, you need to bring the fish in and they will actually test it for different things and in…

Why not white shark ?
I have never heard of anyone keeping sharks as pets. I know some people do keep the smaller species but they are very expensive to care for and require massive tanks!
I have but not for a salt tank. It seems as though saltwater fish at the local shops have a different return policy. The fresh water ones can be brought back but they will only exchange salt water ones if they died…

Are there diseases that only happen in salt tanks?
I don't know much about salt water tanks or their care, I am still researching about them before deciding if I want one or not. I am curious if there are any diseases that only happen in salt tanks. Like something that…

Can Amazon Milk Frogs be placed in a long aquarium?
A friend of mine wants to add frogs to his long aquarium. I can't remember how many gallons it is, but the space where it is all water holds about 30 gallons and the landside is about the same. He has it split down the…

Are parasites common in fish?
I thought this fish I had seen at the pet shop might have parasites as it appeared to have something thin and long wiggling around inside of it. When I told one of the workers, they said they would let the manager know.…
I completely clean it out. Remove all the water and I throw the substrate out and get new substrate. If the plants can be cleaned, I will clean them otherwise I will just get new ones. I make everything sit out to dry…
When I was younger, I had a 30 gallon tank I believe it was that had a mix of different fish. One of them came down with ich and I did not treat it fast enough. Everything died but the one goldfish that was in the tank.

My fishes are restless
This greatly depends on the kind of fish you are talking about and how long you have had them. Some fish will be restless when they have been placed in a new tank and can take up to 10 days to normalize their behavior…
Depending on the size of tank, you can get an idea from this video of how to build them. You just have to make sure whatever you use, it is able to hold the weight of the tank.
I prefer acrylic tanks, they are easy to maintain. I have kids in the house, I don't have to worry about glass breakage and these acrylic tanks are very durable. That seems to be the main reason people opt for them…
You can also try Cuba (Hemianthus callitrichoides) it's one of the smallest aquarium plants in the world. It grows over the bottom of the tank with tiny round leaves, and like most carpeting plants it spreads rapidly…
If you select Dwarf Hairgrass for your tank, you could get a water carpet in no time. It grows very fast and with medium light and temperature. It does require trimming every two weeks. I will look into this, thanks!…

Tiny snails?
A surprising number of, well, surprises tend to turn up when buying things for aquariums. It certainly seems that way! I am assuming they were in the tanks where the plants were kept and because they lay touch tiny…

Frozen cucumbers?
So I liked feeding these to my shrimp but it seemed as though when I was, the fish would be overeating and many ended up with bloat. I am not sure if this is because the fish shouldn't have been eating it or not as I…

Which types of fish go best with shrimp?
I would like to have 1 to 3 fish (smaller fish and non-schooling) in my shrimp tank just to allow for more fertilizer for the plants. I had thought of getting a siamese fighting fish again but I read that the shrimp can…
They get plump! I have some fancy guppies and I can tell they are pregnant just by looking at them but if you look closely, in some livebearers, you can actually see the babies in their belly. So long as the mass is…
Wow, over $100 is brutal! Yeah and because it is a beta fish which seems to be prone to dying earlier it seems, I feel like that is a waste of money. If I know it would live 6+ years for sure then I wouldn't have an…
I am sure that is true, though I still used to think fish were underpriced anyway. So long as people are motivated to take care of them, I don't care if it's really just because of inflation. For some yes, it would seem…

Snail eggs or fish eggs?
I am not sure what this is. It is not snails or snail eggs. Fish eggs and snail eggs would both be in clusters. What kind of species do you have in the tank?
