What do you need to keep a barramundi as a pet?
To keep a barramundi as a pet, you'll need a spacious aquarium or fish tank with a minimum capacity of 100 gallons, as they can grow quite large. The tank should have excellent filtration, as barramundi are sensitive to water quality, and maintain a temperature between 24-30°C (75-86°F). Additionally, provide proper lighting, hiding spots, and a well-balanced diet consisting of high-quality pellets, live or frozen foods. Regular water testing and maintenance are essential for their health and well-being.

Does it effect Betta fish if you change the fish from a regular tank to a filter tank?
Betta fish will not be harmed if they are in a filtered tank. If the new tank is about the same size as the old tank you should use the old water or most of it in the new tank. If the new tank is larger so you have to add lots of new water then you should fill the new tank with the new water and let it sit (preferably with the filter running) for two or three days before adding the fish. Also when you move the fish make sure the new tank is at the same temperature as the old tank.
