That is a common occurence. Usually the tanks water is filled with millions of microscopic air bubbles and sometimes bits of microscopic dust from the gravel. The air bubbles will eventually evaporate off and the dust that isn't picked up by the filter will sink to the bottom and settle down leaving the water clear.

What should you feed fish so as they grow bigger?

Actually, with fish it is not what you feed them, but the size of the tank/pond they are in. Fish grow to fit their environment to some extent. If you have a gold fish in a smaller tank/pond they will stay pretty small, but a little larger one and they will grow a bit larger. You'll never get a gold fish to be the size of a whale because that can't happen, but you can get a larger fish by adjusting the tank/pond size.


What fish should you get for a two gallon tank?

You don't have many options, as that is a very small tank. One betta is an okay option, although they really should have a bit more room. You can get invertebrates such as a shrimp or a mystery snail. And make sure to heat the tank if the fish/invert is tropical.


What would happened to the fishes if the water plants were removed from the aquarium?

How do you take care of wild big fish?

Firstly, to calm it down, just give it a bit of fish food. Secondly, if it's wild, and it's big, then give the fish a bit of space so maybe buy him a large fish tank and some decorations for him to play with. Thirdly, let him him have a bit of time by himself just to relax and get used to his surroundings. I hope this info helps!

Should you house your gerbil in a fish tank or a cage?

The only huge difference is that in a fish tank the gerbil wont flick things out through the bars, and in a tank your gerbils will also be tame faster as they have no place to hide. but a cage could be more fun for a gebil if it has lots of levels, ladders and platforms - but you could always add these to a tank with a bit of difficulty.
