it is possible if they have the rough coat gene in their ancestry but since they are both smooth coat guinea pigs they will most likely make a smooth coat baby guinea pig.
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.
The long haired guinea pigs are called Abyssinian. They are known for their long and short, rough coat.
A black guinea pig would have a black coat color, while a white guinea pig would have a white coat color. Color variation in guinea pigs is due to different alleles of the gene controlling coat color, resulting in different phenotypes.
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.
Please add on to this list because I know that I most likely didn't include them all, but I know there is Wired hair (commonly found on Jack Russells and Fox Terriers) there is Smooth Coat (Example-Smooth Chihuahuas) there is Rough (Rough coated Collie) Flat (Flat coated Retriever) Curly (Curly Coated Retriever)

If you look up genetics in BrainPop, it will show you. The guinea pig must have an ancestor that had rough skin.
Rough endoplasmic reticulum & smooth endoplasmic reticulum Because hair contain protein called keratin. Proteins are made in rough ER. And lipids are produced by the smooth ER.
If by "English Smooth Coat" , you mean sheltie, then you can end up with a couple of both in the litter. Then a again, you could end up with a mix.
Smooth - shorter flat lying coat. Rough - lots of insulating hair and longer guard hairs. Needs LOTS of brushing. Smooth vs rough is exactly as it sounds.

Yes
There isn't really a smooth-coated border collie. The border collie is a different breed, but the rough collie, with a long double coat, and the smooth collie, with a shorter coat, are pretty closely related. The rough collie and the smooth collie both originated for herding purposes in the British Isles. They have the same general shape, size, and colorations. The only big difference is the coat type.
You would have to breed it to a wire coat ( W_ x ww ) and if there are any puppies born with a wire coat then you know that your smooth coat carries the recessive gene.

about 4 gallons for one coat for smooth surface; about 6 gallons if the surface is rough
There are two different coat types for the Parson Russell terriers, aka. the Jack Russell Terrier. smooth or rough, they don't change as the dog ages, you get what you got.
