There are so many different types of filter it is hard to give instructions/direction on how to set one up. The filter outlet needs to send the water away from the filter.

How long can an Oscar fish go without an air filter?

Fish do not need an air filter. They need a water filter. No fish will survive for long in a tank that has no cycled filter running permanently. The only way to avoid death under these conditions is to replace heaps of water very regularly to remove the ammonia that is created by the fish. The basic rules of sucessfull fish keeping are.The basic rules are. :- 1 inch of fish must have at least 1 gallon of water.(1 Oscar needs at least 15 gallons) :- Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. :- Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week.. If you follow those basics and keep the fish at the correct temperature, water pH and GH, for its species, your fish should be OK. If you miss out on any of the above, your fish will be constantly getting sick and will live a shorter life than they should.

Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Keep to the above rules and your fish stand a chance of surviving.

Will a plecostamus live with no algae in fish tank?

No. What happens in a fish tank is that ammonia is produced from the fish's waste (it is excreted through the gills, and their poo and uneaten food rapidly breaks down into ammonia). Plecos, by the way, are very messy fish. There is no way to prevent this from happening, and ammonia is extremely toxic to fish, even in tiny amounts. So the ammonia needs to be removed. The bacteria that change the ammonia into non toxic substances live in the filter, so without a filtration system the ammonia in the tank will build up and build up, killing the fish very fast. In order to sufficiently dilute the ammonia without a filter, you would have to do huge water changes several times a day, and in the sort of tank (100 gallons) required to support a fish as big as a plecostomus, this would be logistically impossible.

How do you build a freshwater fish tank?

all you really need is a tank (duhh) gravel or rocks, filter, light, lid for light, plants (fake or real), and last of all the fish <><. first thing is to clean your tank with some water to get rid of all the dust. Next you need to clean your gravel. How you do that is put them in a bucket add water and just run your hand around it a couple of times after that remove the water and add them to the tank. Now u need to fill up the tank half way with water, now you start add plants and rocks or what ever your adding to it. now fill it up all the way and add the chemicals. add the filter and let it run for 24 hours before you start adding fish into the tank. when you let it run for 24 hrs when u get the fish place the fish bag in the tank and let it sit for 10 min to get water temp same then let the fishes free.
