The worlds largest freshwater fish?
As much as I have owned freshwater fish in the past, the only ones I have ever owned and taken care of have been smaller ones and it got me thinking, what is the largest freshwater fish? With so many different kinds of…

What is the largest freshwater fish?
So something I have often wondered about is what the largest freshwater fish is. I know we can get some big freshwater fish but I have only seen fish of a certain size when it comes to freshwater fish. Is there a fish…
I have tried so many methods when I needed to catch my fish in a net and most of the different ways I tried made it a little easier but it was always still a task. I found the two-net method to be the better option…
If you feel you have a use for it and you feel it would be something you would like to do then I would say go for it. It's all about personal preference and if that is what you want to do.
I did have betta and guppies together but always betta goes to hunt my guppies. It seems that betta doesn't get along with other fishes. Not from my own experience but from the experience of friends that I know who own…
I always personally preferred to get them online as I knew that getting them online would be reliable and also safe as well as me getting them from a reliable store online. I do know people that tend to get certain…
I was brought up with freshwater fish tanks as a kid and I always saw my parents taking care of the tanks and such so I learned a lot from that and it was easier for me to go with something I already knew something…

How to decorate.....?
Whenever I had a fish tank I would always use gravel and also plants as well as decoration to make the tank seem much more natural for the fish. This always seemed to work for the fish I had which were usually goldfish.
My question would be do fish really have a very short attention span. I often wonder whether that is the case as they are always in the same tank and seeing the same things and just swimming around and it could seem…
Never use hot glue in a fish tank as it can dissolve and then cause issues in the tank. As mentioned, the silicone would be the better option for what you are wanting to do and less of a chance that you will cause…

How big....?
Most people are under the impression until they ask someone about it that starting off with a small tank would benefit them better but it's actually the opposite. Most will recommend you get a large tank and start large…
This is interesting as anyone I have known including myself has always had something on the bottom of the tank as well as plants as well. I suppose it really depends on the kind of fish you are keeping and whether they…
When I had my fish when I used to open the tank up to say feed the fish or do something, I would always catch the smell that came from it and it always reminded me of a rainy day and that fresh smell you get after it…
I would definitely suggest something that is close to 10 gallons if you are looking for something for your apartment. Most people I know who keep fish and are in an apartment do end up getting something roughly that…
I remember with my mum, we used to have small fish tanks but the more fish we ended up getting the more tanks we got until we got a huge standing one. That was when my mum realized she had a problem with getting too…
It's definitely not difficult to get started at all when it comes to freshwater tanks. I would definitely do some research into freshwater tanks and freshwater fish before you jump into getting a tank and fish to find…
When it comes to a freshwater tank, I would say start off small at first until you get the hang of maintaining a freshwater fish tank and gradually move up as and when you feel ready. What fish are you looking to keep…
I would say it depends on what you use in your tank for the water as to whether it would be safe for your plants. If you are using some chemicals in your water, I would definitely check to see if they would be safe to…

Need little adviced
I would definitely not advise putting acara in with goldfish at all. Getting two separate tanks if you can that would be a better option as they as stated above both need different size tanks and different temperature…
I myself have not used driftwood for my tanks in the past but I do have friends that have used driftwood in their tanks. They bought the driftwood from the store that was not in water, and it varied on how long it would…
