Can a common goldfish have a heater in its tank? I’m asking because I have a filtered freshwater tank, with a goldfish, and i wanted to get and African Dwarf Frog and some ghost shrimp maybe. I know that Dwarf frogs need a heater, and could my goldfish survive with a heater? What about ghost shrimp? do they prefer heated or room temp.? Also do African dwarf frogs need dry land?
I just got two African Dwarf Frogs today and the salesperson at the pet store gave me bottom feeder shrimp pellets and Omega One freshwater fish flakes. I understand they eat bloodworms and brineshrimp but is this appropriate to feed them? I put some in the tank today (2 pellets and a couple flakes) and they swam right over them. I know they are getting used to their new home, but will they eat the food? And how long should I wait before taking any uneaten food out of the tank?
Thanks
As of right now I am unable to keep anything frozen, but would reptomin pellets work?
And the sales person at the petstore told me to feed them twice a day. But I have also heard only 3-4 times a week. Which one?
They have yet to eat. I got them on Sunday afternoon. I went out an got Reptomin and put a couple of small pieces in there today and yesterday. Yesterday one of the frogs put it in his mouth and spit it back out. Any more advice? I also ordered aquatic frog food online. It should be here in a couple days

I have a 10 gallon freshwater tank. It has 3 old zebra danios that are going to die soon from age, 2 pygmy cories,2 panda corys, and 2 african dwarf frogs. I used to have gravel and now sand. I do monthly water changes and i will hover over the sand with my gravel vac to keep it clean. I was just wondering what can i put in here that are cheaper and can live in a 10g ill be adding black khuli loaches. I asked my LFS and they said ghost shrimp will bully and might even kill my frogs. But i herd ppl have them togethrr peacefully. So i dont know what is best. I was also thinking about a apple or mystery snail. So what invert is best for my planet sand 10g freshwater aquarium?

So i bought a 10 gallon aquarium with a filter and i filled it up with water and used some conditioner and i constantly go to get the water checked and each time i get told my ammonia is to high! so they told me to do partial water changes %15 each time once a day with conditioner so i did that for a week and a half and i went today to the pet store to once again get the water tested. and this time they told me my ammonia is worse along with my nitrate’s and all together it has been like 3 weeks i am very annoyed all i want is a fish tank. so today i bought a different conditioner called prime because i was told it was really good. so i was told this time to do water changes twice a week with conditioner. i have no existing fish in the tank and i want it to be freshwater with african dwarf frogs and bamboo shrimp and maybe some glofish. can somebody tell me what i can do to get this done
