Care of Fish

Babies come from the combination of an egg from the mother and sperm from the father during conception. The fertilized egg then develops into a baby over the course of approximately nine months inside the mother's womb.

A typical scallop can weigh around 1-2 ounces, though this can vary depending on the size and species of the scallop.

The weight of an adult butterfly fish can range between 1.5 to 5 ounces depending on their size. This fish can range in size from three to six inches. The butterfly fish is found near coral reefs of different oceans around the world.

It is not recommended for fish to eat baby turtle food as their nutritional needs are different. Fish require specific nutrients found in fish food for proper growth and health. Feeding fish turtle food can lead to nutrient deficiencies and health problems.

Iridescent sharks are bottom-dwelling fish, so it is normal for them to spend time resting on the bottom of the tank. However, if your shark is constantly at the bottom and not swimming normally, it could be a sign of stress, poor water quality, or illness. Check your water parameters and tank conditions to ensure they are appropriate for your fish.

One way to determine the sex of a koi fish is by looking at their breeding tubercles, small raised spots on the head and pectoral fins that are more prominent in males. Additionally, male koi tend to have more slender bodies and narrower ventral areas than females. Finally, during breeding season, males may exhibit more aggressive behavior.

If your fish are swimming up to the surface and gasping for air it a sure sign that there is not enough oxygen in the tank; another sign may be an increased flaring of the gills. You need to buy a filter for the tank (or if you already have one a stronger filter) in order to more efficiently replenish the oxygen supply. If the 'tank' is a small bowl, change the water more often.

You don't take them out of the water.

it depends how big the tank is. since this type of fish stays relatively small, use the one inch of fish per gallon of water rule. mollies are a grouping fish and should be kept with 4-6 or more of their own kind. you can keep them with platies, guppies, swordtails, endlers livebearers.... many freshwater peacefull fish will 'play nicely' with them.

Male bettas are known for their aggressive behavior towards other male bettas, particularly when defending their territory or competing for mates. They may engage in fighting by flaring their fins and displaying aggressive behaviors towards each other. In contrast, female bettas can generally coexist peacefully with each other, although some individual females may also display territorial behavior.

Yes, fish do have a backbone. They are vertebrates, which means they have a spinal column made up of individual vertebrae that protect their spinal cord. This backbone provides support and structure for their body.

Some fish that tend to be loners include certain species of anglerfish, lionfish, and betta fish. These fish are often territorial and prefer to live alone rather than in schools or groups.

The life span of snails in the wild is on average two or three years.

Some snails may live longer, perhaps even 30 years or older in the case of the Roman snail but most live less than 8 years. Many deaths are due to predators and parasites.

Clown fish drink water. Clown fish are a fish that live in salt waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.

Water frogs usually eat a diet consisting of insects, worms, small fish, and sometimes even small mammals or birds. They are opportunistic feeders and will consume a variety of prey that they can easily catch in their aquatic environment.

Sawfish are carnivorous and primarily feed on fish, crustaceans, and other small marine creatures. Their diet consists of a variety of prey such as mullet, shrimp, crabs, and other small fish that they capture using their saw-like rostrum.

I will asume this is for a goldfish or a beta. If it is some other kind if fish it may need filteratin, areation or circulating water, so make sure it will be okay in a bowl rather than an Aquarium. first you need a bowl, some aquarium rocks or marbles for substrate (to cover the bottom of the bowl) chlorine free water. and whatever decorative items you want (plants of some kind of figurine. this is not a necesity) Put the rocks in the bottom of the bowl, an inch or a half inch deep. Put in the deccorations if you have some. Now for the water, you can't just use water streight from the tap because tap water has chemicals (like chlorine ) in it so nothing can live in it, including fish. There are a number of options here. You can set the water out in an open container for 24 hours and the chlorine will simply evaporate, leaving it safe for your fish. You can buy drops that remove chlorine from the water instantly, or you can buy bottled water (make sure that it is pure water and chemical free). Now you need to add ther fish. it is important that the temprature of the water the fish comes home in be aproximately the same as the water in the bowl, so don't just dump him streight in. If the bowl is large enough, flote the bag with the fish in it in the top of the bowl for about 15 minutes before putting him in the bowl. if not set it beside the bowl for 15 minutes the result will be aproximately the same. one more thing. when you buy the fish, make sure you also ger the apropriate food for it. the bowl will need to be cleaned frequently, once a week to once a month depending on the type and number of fish and the size if the bowl. Just catch the fish and put them, with some of their water into another container, dump the rest of the water, rinse the bowl and rocks with plain tap water. DO NOT USE SOAP!!!! and put it all back together.

Comet fish mate through a process called spawning where the male releases sperm and the female releases her eggs at the same time, usually triggered by changes in the environment or water conditions. The fertilized eggs then drift in the water until they hatch into fry.

Toadfish are primarily found in coastal waters in temperate and tropical regions around the world. They typically inhabit shallow rocky or sandy areas, estuaries, and coral reefs. Many species of toadfish are bottom-dwellers and can be found at various depths depending on the species.

Oscars grow relatively large, aggressive and are messy fish. If there is sufficent room in the tank and the Oscars are of similar size it would be possible. Just feed current Oscar first, turn off the aquarium lights and perhaps rearrange the aquariums decorations as you add the next one. Fish are more passive when full, having the tank dark decreases stress on both fish to make the introduction easier and rearranging the tank decor will sometimes pacify some territorial fish.

They swim, they have gills, they live under water, they are sea creatures. They have fins, they travel in schools, they live underwater, and they have scales.

Most fishes have gills, fins, and scales. Their skeletons are either made of cartilage and bone.

they are cold blooded

Primarily types of Carp. There are: Goldfish * Black Moor * Bubble Eye * Butterfly Tail * Calico * Celestial Eye * Comet * Common * Fantail * Lionchu * Lionhead * Oranda * Panda Moor * Pearl Scale * Pom Pom * Ranchu * Ryukin * Shubunkin * Telescope Eye * Veiltail Koi * Kohaku * Taisho Sanshoku * Showa Sanshoku * Tancho * Asagi, Shusui * Bekko * Utsurimono * Goshiki * Ogon * Kin Gin Rin * Kawarimono * Doitsu-goi * Koromo * Hikari-Moyomono * Ghist koi * butterfly koi __________________________________________________________________

Moon snails are preyed upon by various animals such as crabs, starfish, sea stars, and some shorebirds. These predators are able to crack the thick shell of a moon snail to access the soft body inside.

Gravel is not essential for goldfish, but it can provide a natural environment and anchor plants in the aquarium. However, make sure the gravel is large enough to prevent the goldfish from accidentally ingesting it, which can cause health problems. Regular gravel cleaning is also necessary to maintain water quality.

Golf fish, and most types of gold fish, not just the basic ones. small tiny fish, only fresh water! also bear in mind the tank has to be a decent size in comparision the fish and the amount of fish.

The thought that goldfish only have a memory of three seconds is false.

Studies show that a goldfish has a memory of a few months. Goldfish have been taught to go through mazes or do tricks. The simplest way to prove that a goldfish has a memory longer than three seconds is to observe what they do right before they are fed. They tend to congregate at the surface near the human that feeds them. Goldfish clearly remember (have a memory) that seeing a human often leads to being fed.
