He would only be interested in the tank for maybe 5 mins then just walk away bored. If you really want to entertain your dog with fish you are going to need a huge tank with monster fish to catch his eye. Examples like arowana's or oscars. There really is no such thing as a low maintenance tank just lazy owners. You have to do water changes for fish, no way around it. Imagine swimming in a pool that you poop and pee in everyday, you may have a filter that cleans up the water but it still stinks. If you want to entertain your dog buy him toys or invest in another dog. I dont think that your dog would really care much for a tank with fish.

I also just get a gallon of spring water from the store and put him in a cup, clean his bowl out, pour the new water in and dump him back in there without letting him adjust to the temperature and he is just fine everytime. They are indestructable. A betta fish, I’ve had mine for a year now, I clean out his fish bowl like once a month and it doesn’t get real dirty.

They don't even need a filter system. Crowntail bettas are in most pet stores and look awesome. You can feed them as little as once a week. Just one fish per bowl though, they fight to the death right away. I have several in my house in glass vases with a plant on top, the roots in the water. It's a good eco-system - all the fish and the plants are thriving 2 years later. IMO – Betta fish. They don’t even need a filter system. Crowntail bettas are in most pet stores and look awesome.
