3 days ago I set up and began running a new 55 gal. tank and have been thinking about my fish options if I don't put in a heater. This is my first 55 gal. and I'm taking my time so I don't screw anything up like I did when I first got my 30 gallon. Here are my questions:
#1: What kinds of compatible fish are recommended for a tank w/out a heater?
#2: Should I put live plants in the tank? Currently there are only fake plants
inside....if so, do I need special lighting for plants or will the regular lights
be ok?
#3: Can I take some gravel from my established aquarium and put in in the new
one to speed up bacteria development?
Thanks for taking the time to read all of this. I'm sure I'll have many more questions before I put any fish in the tank. ANY advise or info you can share will be greatly appreciated! Thanks and have a great day.
