My Pictures... Multiple Aquariums

[Dr. Bogger]

Here are some pictures of all 5 of my aquariums, i took the pictures in a hurry, so dont mind the water spots on the glass in some of the pics.


First Up:
This is my Gold Fish Tank... Its a Mini-Bow 2.5 Gallon Tank (yes i know the fish will outgrow the tank, and i will be giving them a bigger tank once they do)
In this tank, i also have a African Clawed Frog...
See the pics:

Next up is my Betta Bubble Wall-Mount Tank:

Next up is my 2 Gallon Tank, however there is no fish in it yet:

Next up is my Main Project... My 28 Gallon Bow Front Aquarium... There is no decorations in it, because of some issues i have been having with the tank cycling... But here is a picture of the unfinished project:

Last but not least:
My Guppy Tank... This tank has a ton of baby guppy fry in it, once they get big enough, ill be selling them to my lfs... Here it is:

I hope you all enjoy!

I'd move the betta out of that horrid container and into that 2gal ASAP.

Your Betta doesnt look too happy!

Ok...just stating my opinion here...but its not nice to just put that his/hers betta doesnt look happy...the fish may very well be happy, and at least its not in one of those little plastic containers that barely offer enough room for it to move around in! Be nice, and dont state that someones fish looks unhappy, its not fair to the owner. In my opinion, I like the betta bowl on the wall idea, it looks spacious! Great job with the tanks and I wish you the best!

But for a 3 inch fish to be stuck in there for the rest of its lil life aint too fair is it...?
Yes, in the wild they live in puddles in Thailand etc that are shallow, and just about cover the fish but do you know how wide they are? They jump from one and other every day.
Not having a go at you DR Bogger but od put it in that 2 gal, you'll see the difference

african clawed frog is tropical and will get far too big and eat other fish!!!

If i put him in that, then what am i suppose to do with the one on the wall? the one on the wall is a 0.75 Gallon Tank, so imo, its not THAT small for a betta.

Yes, i know, and once he gets bigger he will be going in my big tank, with bigger fish

You do realise that rather than outgrow the tank, what will most likely happen is that the fish will be stunted, suffer severe health problems, and die.
You can't just wait for them to outgrow the tank, because they will die before that happens.

Here's an essential reading post on stunting in cyprinids (like goldfish): [URL="http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?s=&showtopic=183660&view=findpost&p=1517892"]http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?s=&amp...t&p=1517892[/URL]

Those two are going to be needing something like a standard 4' x 1' x 1' aquarium, at the very least something around 120 litres in volume, whith a large external filter for biological filtration .

Actually ACFs can live in both tropical and colder waters. Aswell, at the size the frog is currently and the size of the goldfish, there won't be any problems at this time.

ok first thing dont get upset just stating my opinion
1. That bowl is WAY to SMALL for the betta but not only that thebowl doesn't even have any filtration thereofre in your pic the betta is close to the top probably gasping or air , my advice like lots of other members would be to remove the betta into a 2 gallon at least before he dies (you have to say it cruel to make a point ).
2. Other tanks look good

I do 100% water changes every 3-4 days... and i also use my finger and splash the water around once per day to get oxigen into the water... Hes not gasping for air, he just likes sitting at the top of the water.

And yes, i understand the bowl is too small for him, so please, stop saying that.... i get the point




No offence, but im realy starting to get annoyed with everyone badgering me about how my tank(s) is too small, etc... I know they are small, and i know im taking a chance, but give me a brake will ya?

But you wouldnt buy a labrador if you lived in a shed, and take a chance would you?
IMO - i think its not fair on any living creatures to be taking chances on, not when there quality of life is at stake.
If you cant give it the simulated living conditions of the wild, or just as good as. Its not worth taking the risk.

Im not having a pop - Just giving advice, and as someone said, my comment wasnt fair, i felt maybe i needed to explain why i said that.

 

[Plecs&Puffers]

sorry tropicman i know it wasnt you who said that, i was trying to put in a quote from DR.Bogger but went horribly wrong
