Will You Get Sick If You Don’t Eat Veggies?

By on Sunday, October 23rd, 2011 | 3 Comments

This is purely for hypohetical reasons only. I love vegetables and have even contemplated becoming a vegetarian but my friend asked me this question…
If you don’t eat vegetables or fruit BUT you do pleanty of excercise and don’t eat junk like lollies and your diet was made up of Red meat, fish, eggs, nuts, bread, pasta, water and milk would you get sick?
Again this is purely hypothetically, my friend was not contemplating this lifestyle she was just curious.

how gallons do i need for this fish?

By on Sunday, October 23rd, 2011 | 5 Comments

Question by Luke T: how gallons do i need for this fish?
7 neon tetras: (i asked for 6 but woman gave me another for free, by mistake. she didnt realies she gave me an extra one.)

2 gouramis: (in the shop. they were classed as “minature” as it said on the label, “Minature gourami” then in brackets (small)

3 weather loaches: they are currently 2 inchs long, but i know they will get bigger.

2 african dwarf frogs: (not the clawed ones, they get huge)

(also i might be getting a couple of guppys/mollys)

P.S dont say “they should be schooled”, for any of the ones i said about 3 for. because the shop only had 3.

and WHATEVER YOU DO! do NOT use the 1 inch per gallon rule, thats bollocks.
rofl? 75gallon? shut it. they don t grow to 12 inchs. they grow to 8 inchs max.

Best answer:

I Need Advice On Aquariam Plants And How To Make My Tank Look Professional?

By on Sunday, October 23rd, 2011 | 1 Comment

I have had aquariums for awhile but I have only ever had plastic plants, plastic gravel, and plastic decorations and I am so tired of looking all the fake-ness. I know that there are wide selections of aquatic plants but i don’t want to need to dig up the roots of the plants every time I clean my tank. I have heard of “baja wood” (I don’t know if that’s what it really is called”) which you can apparently attach plants to somehow? Also I don’t know what kinds of plants I should start out with. I have no idea what kind of substrate I need to use with real plants. Can I stick with plastic gravel or do I need some other kind of substrate? My tank is 26 gallons and I only have brightly colored small “showy” fish. I want to get some kind of shrimp with the plants because I heard they can clean off algae that grows on the plants and be otherwise contributive to the tank. I have had ghost shrimp before but i wanted to know about cherry shrimp? (where can I get them?) If I shouldn’t get shrimp what about otocinclus? The last thing I want to know is why no fish (except for guppies) have ever had babies/ layed eggs in my tank when i am sure that i have had males and females of the fish that I’ve had in the past?
