How could a guinea pig breeder whether a rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous or heteorzygous for this trait?
A breeder could determine if a rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous or heterozygous by conducting a test mating. Breeding the rough-coated guinea pig with a smooth-coated guinea pig would show if the rough coat is dominant or recessive. If all the offspring have rough coats, it indicates the rough-coated guinea pig is homozygous for the trait. If both rough and smooth-coated offspring are produced, then the rough-coated guinea pig is heterozygous.

Can a guinea pig live in a fish tank?
Assuming that the fish tank is no longer filled with water, and assuming that the lid has been removed or ventilation is otherwise assured, there is no reason why a guinea pig shouldn't be able to live in a disused fish tank. Of course, the fish tank must have a suitable size for a Guinea Pig. Most domestic fish tanks will be too small. Given size and ventilation constrains, the bottom line is that a fish tank most certainly is not a suitable replacement for a regular Guinea Pig cage. You should also note that the floor of a fish tank is usually made of a smooth material. For the fish tank, it is important that the material is water proof, and it is beneficial that it is smooth for easy cleaning. However, a Guinea Pig needs to wear out its toenails. You can take it to the vet regularly to have its toenails clipped, and you can learn to do it yourself. This will be essential for the Guinea Pig's health. Alternatively, you might be able to coat the smooth floor with lots of rough stones and coarse sand paper for the Guinea Pig to climb over. These help with the natural manicure.
