Do puffer fish and dalmatian molly fish get a long?
I've heard that they can get along for a while, but it's common that the puffer fish latter eats it. o.o But when I put a dalmatian molly with my green spotted puffer it was the molly that chased the puffer and was mean to it ( I sperated them right away). So I don't think it's a good idea, and it really depends on the fishes personality. But really it's just not worth it and puffers should only be housed alone or with others of their own kind.
Can eating fish make you die of mercury?
Mercury is a metal that accumulates in the muscle or meat of the fish, (just like humans) if the fish is high on the food chain like sharks, tuna and sword fish, they continue to eat smaller fish with mercury in it's system, faster than their body can excrete it and the amount of mercury continues to build up in their system.
It will eventually poison the fish causing sluggish movements, decrease growth, deformities, reduced appetite, decrease in size and an increase in birth defects or the complete loss of the ability to spawn.
If the source of the mercury is removed the fish will recover fairly rapidly, similar to the recovery in humans.
The biggest threat of mercury to humans is birth defects, miscarriage and possibly autism. Women who are breast feeding, pregnant or could become pregnant should have no fresh water fish and limit salt water fish to 6oz or less per week.
"Mercury poisoning causes neurological symptoms: insomnia, tremor, and the rage attacks," said Robert G. Feldman, a professor of neurology, pharmacology, and environmental health at Boston University's School of Medicine and Public Health, who was a coauthor of the scientific report.
Does a Chinook salmon have any nicknames?
Chinook Salmon (oncorhynchus tshawytscha) also know as King, Blackmouth, Quinnat, Chub, Tyee
Depending on the size of the fish and the tank, yes you can. It would be best to stick with community fish so that they can get along and not fight or eat one another. The easiest community fishes are live bearers like guppies and tetras. Talk to the associate at your local pet store to view all of the low aggresive/ community type fish. Make sure the tank is large enough for all the fish and decorations and that there are plenty of hiding places so your fish can feel secure. Remember the golden rule 1 inch of fish for every gallon of water. Example: A 3 inch fish will need 3 gallons. Dont forget to include a bottom feeder like a crab or snail (just 1 snail) to help with waste on the bottom of the tank.
What is the best way to do fishless cycle in an aquarium?
Fishless cycle with pure ammonia and heavy bacteria seeding can be the fastest way to do to get a new fish tank ready for naturally occurring aquarium nitrogen cycle. Without it sufficient nitrogen cycle taking place in the fish tank, fish may die to ammonia poisoning within weeks.
Get a good source of ammonia for fishless Cycle :
Get a pure ammonia product from any hardware store. Make sure there is nothing else besides ammonia (usually ammonia hydroxide) and water in the bottle.
Heavy bacteria seeding for fishless cycling :
The form of bacteria seeding can be done with borrowing a piece of filter media from a well established (still currently running) aquarium, and stick it into your own filter system. It will give you both species of bacteria for converting both ammonia and nitrite from the very start. With such jump start, fishless cycling can be shortened to within two weeks from the usual six to eight weeks.
There is a proven working commercial live bacteria product for heavy seeding in case you do not have access to a well established aquarium. It is called Tetra SafeStart. It is meant for fish-in cycle, but it works just well for fishless cycle. In fact, fishless cycle is still recommended even with heavy bacteria seeding from Tetra SafeStart. With this product, you can have your new fish tank cycled within days. Often time you can see nitrate reading the very next day.
Other small things that can speed up fishless cycle :
1. Raise water temperature to above 80F.
2. Increase surface movement for more oxygen.
3. Have a very efficient filter system.
There is no fixed time for fishless cycling, but it can be as long as 6~8 weeks, or as short as a few days with the help of heavy seeding and all other tips applied together.
Why do people believe that spinosaurus was like the one in JP3 when it was a fish eater?
