Is Darwin from the amazing world of gumball a fish?

Yes. Darwin is a fish. The clues that led to the realization that he was a fish is:

1: In one episode Darwin woke up from a fishbowl

2: If you remove his legs and arms, you have a perfect replica of a fish

3: The thing sticking out of Darwin's head is a fin if you look closely

4: And if you notice, when Darwin is not talking his lips are always puckered up like a fish.

Fin + sleep in fishbowl + Head of a fish = Darwin/Goldfish

Is fish oil or krill oil better?

It was originally believed that fish oil is better than krill oil. It has now been proven that krill oil is at least 3 times better for you than fish oil. Advertisements for krill oil are now being run on TV.

The main problem with this is that the numbers of krill are rapidly decreasing due to two problems. 1, global warming is melting ice which contains an algae that krill eat for their main source of food. 2, overfishing of krill because it is more nutritious than fish oil. If krill become an extinct species it will be extremely bad for the marine environment.

Krill are whales main source of food and the same with many other marine animals. Squid, seals and other animals rely on krill and without them animals will have to start eating other creatures like fish and squid leaving them extinct too. With none of these animals left the only things left will basically be plankton and not many animals eat plankton because it is so minute. Whales are the main predators of plankton.

Although krill oil is better for you it is not a good idea to buy it because it will be a major problem for the marine environment.

What is the weight of a X-ray tetra?

I would be prepared to bet few people have weighted there fish. However to give you a guideline the tetra has a swim bladder, meaning it can adjust its density to match the density of water and stay suspended, so 1cm^3 of fish is equal to 1gram. Personally I don't own any x-ray tetras but my tetras are about 3cm long, 0.5cm wide, 0.5cm tall and I'll not include the talk half a centimetre as this is very thin. 2.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.625cm^3 and hence just over half a gram, but make your own Measurments =)

How much does it cost to get a betta breeding set up?

You need to buy a separate breeding tank (about 10 gallons or more with a removable divider), and that can run $20 to $70. You also need a heater and filter, probably $20+ dollars there too. Plastic plants for fry to hide in run cheap, but you shouldn't get gravel. Food is usually less than $10, fry need a special diet of live food, and it may cost more at different stores. Be prepared to spend more than $100 on the entire thing.
