Because I don't bother cleaning it. They bloat after they have been dead awhile. Are you using chlorine neutralizer and water purifier. Do you have algae eater.
My stomach feels bloated.The bloated dead body of the fish floated to the top of the fish tank.
U buy tropical fish and get a background and then that is how u can do that
no tropical fish need warm water
No. Not in the traditional definition of the tropical tank. A tropical tank is a freshwater aquarium. Regal Tangs are saltwater fish and go in a saltwater tank (marine aquarium).
Dead or dying
why not
Probably the fish. I would not put a crab in a tank with tropical fish unless they were a LOT bigger than it was, and it was not going to grow any larger.
Use a tropical fish tank, preferably new. That way you know that it should not leak. Try to avoid using a tank that was used for something other than tropical fish. I prefer glass tanks over acrylic because they are less likely to mark or look dirty and they are easier to keep clean. Most aquarists will tell you to start off with a small tank and as you enjoy it more and more, you can opt a larger tank. When I started into tropical fish and as I bought larger tanks I used the smaller tank for breeding. Tropical fish tanks and supplies are available in most pet stores that sell tropical fish.
if you have a tropical fish or a filtered tank than yes you do need a light
Only if it has a heater in the tank other wise the tropical fish will die. They are warm blooded instead of cold blooded.
Yes. When fish food(ex. tropical flake) sits for too long, it turns into ammonia, a very poisonous substance for fish.(and everything else too!) To prevent your fish from dying from ammonia, clean your tank about every 2 months.
Usually there is a heater that warms the tank on purpose.
