Yes, but it may increase the hardness of the water, and over time may dissolve somewhat.

If they come from the seaside they are probably marine shrimps that live in salt water. If you put them in fresh water they will die.

Can you put coral in a freshwater fish tank?

It's not recommended to place coral or any type of sea shells in a tropical fish tank. Doing so can increase the water's hardness, and may stress the fish. Not all fish like hard water. Plus, coral is a living thing, putting it in freshwater would kill it.

Can the sand from a previous saltwater aquarium be used for a freshwater tank?

No, i wouldn't use it in the freshwater tank. It's been sitting in salt for quite a while, and chances are your salt water sand is comprised of bits of shells. They will throw off the chemistry of your tank and lead to fish loss.


Should you put your fish in a bowl or tank?

it depends on how big it is if it is a goldfish or beta it can be in a bowl.If it is one of those big tiger fish or aqarium fish then put it in a big tank. A fish will grow to the size of the tank or bowl. For instance, say a goldfish is in a tank, it will not grow as big as the tank; however it will grow big enough to be able to swim in their environment. The fish will not overgrow the tank. I had a six inch goldfish in a thirty gallon tank.


Is it correct to say a tank that belongs to several fish is the fish's tank?

That depends on what you mean to say. For example, if you have one angel fish in the tank you could say "That's the fish's tank" meaning that is the tank for the angel fish. If you also had a couple of clown fish, you could refer to the tank as belonging to all three fish by saying "That's the fishes' tank." Slightly different spelling and punctuation
