Typically, it is recommended to start with one goldfish for every 20 gallons of water in a small aquarium. So, for a small aquarium of 10 gallons, you would need one goldfish to start.

Which is best fish for aquarium?

It depends on what kind of aquarium you have. For a tropical aquarium, to start out you should get guppies, or something else hardy that you can find out from someone else. For a Coldwater aquarium, you should start out with regular goldfish. I know it's tempting to get the fancy ones, but for a while, just stick with the common ones. For a Marine aquarium, start out with damselfish. Some other good fish for a tropical aquarium, get most kinds of tetras, Rosy barbs (unless you don't want them to breed), or Cherry Barbs. Other good Coldwater species, weather loach, Shubunkins, and some other kinds of fancy goldfish. For other Marine fish, there's Damsels, and common clownfish.

What is the best way to introduce betta fish and snails into the same aquarium?

When introducing betta fish and snails into the same aquarium, it is best to acclimate them slowly to their new environment. Start by floating the bags containing the fish and snails in the aquarium for about 15-20 minutes to allow the water temperatures to equalize. Then, gradually add small amounts of aquarium water to the bags every 10-15 minutes over the course of an hour. Finally, release the fish and snails into the aquarium gently to minimize stress. Monitor their behavior closely to ensure they are getting along and adjust as needed.

English Dictionary & Thesaurus *Goldfish, Carassius auratus (small golden or orange-red freshwater fishes of Eurasia used as pond or aquarium fishes) *Goldfish, like all cyprinids, lay eggs. They produce adhesive eggs that attach to aquatic vegetation. The eggs hatch within 48 to 72 hours, releasing fry large enough to be described as appearing like "an eyelash with two eyeballs". Within a week or so, the fry begin to look more like a goldfish in shape, although it can take as much as a year before they develop a mature goldfish color. *Goldfish can only grow to sexual maturity if given enough water and the right nutrition.* *Regards,* *ChrisA.* *www.productselected.com* English Dictionary & Thesaurus *Goldfish, Carassius auratus (small golden or orange-red freshwater fishes of Eurasia used as pond or aquarium fishes) *Goldfish, like all cyprinids, lay eggs.
