I know that fish like tuna and salmon are good for a person, but I was wondering about boiled shrimp….Not that I eat a lot of it (though I love it…). A friend and I were just wondering…thanks!

i have a 30 gallon tank and right now i have peaceful and semi-aggressive fish in it and i wanted to get aggressive but now i want to get saltwater but im not sure which one ill have to do less work on and which one cost less but ive done some research on which fish are compatible and all the fish i wanted were compatible but theres to many i think i want 2 bicolor blennies 1 coral beauty angle 2 damsel yellow tail 2 blue sapphire damsels 2 ocellaris clown fish green mandarin 1 banded coral shrimp and 1 bicolor angle fish so i was wondering if i would be able to have this many fish if not tell me which ones would be easier to take care of and which ones are more to be compatible with each other and what coral i should get and live rock i should get well not really what live rock but if i need a protein skimmer or if i should just go with freshwater aggressive fish please help me i cant choose
OKAY. A LOT of beginner tank questions. Can you help me?
This is a REALLY long one. If you can answer everything, I will be SO grateful. ^_^ And it will really give you a chance to show off your fishie knowledge…so for those who are up for it…
Here’s the facts:
1. I have a 10 gallon tank. I intend it to be freshwater and tropical.
2. It’s not near a water source (sink/bathroom) or window.
3. I have a heater, filter, thermometer, net, gravel, and bucket.
4. The hood on the tank has the regular old bulb that came with the setup.
Now for the questions…
1. What’s the best/fastest/neatest/most tried and true way to change the water if the tank is nowhere near a sink or window?
2. I want to have real plants. Do I need to have some kind of special substrate other than gravel? Or in addition to the gravel?
3. What kind of light bulb do I need since I want to have plants?
4. What are some good plants for beginners?Which ones would be good in the background/midground/foreground?
5. I was thinking of stocking my tank with the following combination:
-sparkling gourami
-female betta
-male blue platys
-cherry or amano shrimp (which is a better cleaner? which is hardier?)
-male guppies
-male endler’s livebearers
-hatchetfish
Does this sound like an OK combination? Will all these fish get along? Is this too many fish? How many of each should I have? Do any of these need to have another fish of their own kind? Can they all live within the same temperature/pH/hardness range? Are there any other fish (not interested in suckers/corys/otos) that you would recommend? Please give me a list of fish/critters (and the numbers of each) that I can have in my tank. Including most of the ones I listed, if possible.
PS: I already know how to cycle a tank.
PPS: I promise to pick a best answer.
THANKS!!!!!
