I've got a science teacher who wants my daughter #2 to bring a guppy to school to show the kids a closed bio-system.
No heater, no treated water, no food except the plant that's in the jar.
The last time I did this (when daughter #1 was in the class) I took an aquarium in, heater, water conditioner and all, set it up for him and explained to him that guppies can't live off of the algae and plants alone. The guppy died from the stress anyway. Not doing this again.
It's daughter #2's turn to bring a fish in so I'm looking for an herbivore that can live in an unheated jar.
Is there such a fish?
I thought goldfish but they're omnivores and need their flake food, brine shrimp or whatever.
