I’m looking for fish that would work in a 5 to 10 gallon aquarium. Any ideas? Thanks :)

Want One More Unique Addition To My Aquarium?

I do not have much room left but I am looking for one more unique fish for my tank. I was originally going to get a dwarf frog but appearently the petco and petsmart near me to not sell them anymore.
Fish I have now:
5 guppies
1 balloon molly
1 small-sized catfish
My tank is only ten gallons but I have a good filteration system and good plants so I feel I can do it. I am looking for something unique and something that does not require a lot of gallons. Possible a snail? If you have any ideas let me know.

Do I Have Unique Koi Or Is It Ill?

I just bought a Koi fish from Walmart (I do know that this is a horrible place to buy fish but there are no local shops around me) All the fish in the tank seemed completely healthy and the tank was also very clean. My fish however has a huge row of scales right down his side about an inch in length he also has these chuncky scales along his dorsal fin. He is completely golden orange besides his back bone length which is a grayish black. He seems completely healthy but his scales are nothing like my other Koi fish. So I was wondering if he may be a different breed or do you think that he might be ill? His fins are not flaking nor is he losing them their just rather large? He is also bigger in the middle than my other Koi. Hope you guys can give me some imput! Thanks for taking the time!

Unique And Fun Aquarium Ideas?

I am creating a tank for my new axolotls. It is a 20 gallon long tank. I am trying to come up with ideas that are not typical. In other words, I do not want a natural looking tank like everyone else. I want a clever idea that shows off my axies to their best advantage and suits my bright colorful eclectic house and personality. I am somewhat constrained by what is available of course, but also can get artist made stuff off of Etsy or use unexpected objects. My tank has a slate tile bottom and will have no other substrate (no gravel or sand.)
Some ideas I had:
-Take the typical fantasy/castle further and have a chained virgin and dragon hoard
-Pop Art
-Gargoyle roof
-Sky
-A video game
-Geometric
But I want more ideas to pick the perfect theme!! So throw me out some ideas!

Unique Banquet Halls In New Jersey?

My sorority is planning a formal for this upcoming fall and we are trying to find a banquet hall in New Jersey that is not just your typical ballroom for a wedding or prom, we want something that is unique and different. For example, last year we had it at the Camden aquarium which had the perfect elegant room setting but also fish and other sea creatures swimming around us. We’ve been doing a ton of research and just can’t find anything that stands out! If anyone has an idea of anywhere it would be greatly appreciated! =]
