Community Fish Tank: Fresh Water Aquarium This is the Catspit Productions fresh water community aquarium or fish tank. It is about 8 months after the first aquarium video was posted. Since then I have had to remove all live plants due to fish eating them. They just wouldn’t let them grow. I also had a bout with ick and lost several fish over time.

I heard you feed peas for constipation.
So I put a tiny bit inside and my fish started gobbling it up as soon as I put it in. I didn’t fast him. I feed him 2 times everyday with a tiny bit of food. His/her stomach is normal.

I asked on Y!A yesterday and someone recommended harlequins, danios and guppies and I heard bettas are okay in there too. But which is better? Which has more of a chance of being happy there and living long? And how many could I get?

You know how when you go to the pet store and then there’s those shelves with the betta fish in those little plastic containers? Now I’m just wondering, why is their water bluish and what is the purpose of the blue stuff?

I have a 5 gallon aquarium and would like to add a 50 watt heater for the winter, as temperatures are already starting to drop. However, I already have my three fish in it. Is it safe to add a heater while fish are in the aquarium, and does anybody have any tips on how I might go about it??
Thank you!
Sorry! They’re danios. Definitely tropical fish.
