How do I keep water temperature below 85 degrees? (10 points)?

Listen, I do NOT have a tank heater. I have a 5.5 gallon fish tank with 5 zebra danios. Don’t worry I will be moving them to a 14 gallon fish tank soon. Anyway the fish tank is not near a window, I do not leave the tank lights on, and I feel the fish tank water, and it feels pretty cool. I have 2 submersible thermometers and a sticker one, and they all read 84-86 degrees. I know danios are pretty hardy fish do I am not that concerned, but when I get the 14 gallon fish tank and add tank mates, they might get all fried. What do I do? Would I have to add cold water regularly? Thanks in advance!

For some reason, my fish tank keeps getting dirty and the water turns green, whats wrong with it?

My fish tank water has gone yellow?

I have a 130L tank and ive done numerous 25-50% water changes in the past month and haven’t seen any change. I have 3 sword-tails, 6 neon’s, 1 platy, 1 chili barb and 1 harlequin-rosbora.

My local fish shop said it was because i added a large piece of driftwood to the tank and i needed to boil it, but i have boiled it twice, each time for at least 40 minutes and whenever i add it back to the tank it turns yellow the next day, need help.

Does a “cold water” fish need to have a light on at all times?

My son just got a one gallon fish aquarium with a filter and air pump. He got a gold fish today. Does he need to have the light on at night?

How long after treating the water in a tropical aquarium does it go back to the normal colour?

The fish got white spot disease and I treated the water and its gone blue. How long will it take for the water to go back to the normal colour? And when can I put the filter back in?

Drinking Fish Tank Water Filtered with a MSR Water Filter


I was explaining to my daughter how the MSR water filter worked and told her it would even clean fish tank water and she was determined to try it out. Water tasted just like bottled water! More info on the MSR filter at tinyurl.com
