BBQ/Barbecued Fish?

For something different, I’d like to barbecue fish. Have been told that the best way is to purchase fresh fish (cleaned, de-boned, etc.), wrap it in foil and put on grill on low to medium. What seasoning are best, and do I add butter inside the foil? How long to cook and is low-med. correct? What fish is easiest? Unfortunately 2 of my family members will not eat salmon or tuna, but like almost any other type of fish…I’m thinking trout (?) (I live near a fish outlet where I can purchase fresh fish). Any suggestions and/or simple recipes would be appreciated! Thanks.
p.s. – I BBQ’d large pre-cooked shrimp in foil and was ok, not great – perhaps because it was pre-cooked?

What is the best way of feeding live bloodworms and daphnia to my tropical freshwater fish?

I have no problems with brine shrimp as they are lower risk and generally don’t carry any disease but what is the best way to clean daphnia and bloodworms before feeding or any other details?

What is the best way to feed my fish…?

frozen brine shrimp. It’s for my saltwater fish. For my freshwater I take a bowl of their tank water and melt the cube down and pour it in. I wasn’t sure if it is the same for saltwater or not.
I feed them flakes and pellets as well I just had some left over from rasing guppy fry and thought that they might like a treat.

What’s the fastest way to cycle an aquarium?

I’m thinking about buying 3 dwarf puffers; 2 females and 1 male according to the gender limit. They’re freshwater fish, and I’m going to have them in a 5 gallon tank with fake plants and maybe 2 amano shrimps to eat/clean up leftover food and stuff on the bottom of the tank. I really need to know the fastest way to cycle a 5 gallon aquarium, and cheap too. (I’m an impatient person and I’d really like to experience my first time with raising fish during my spring break.) I really need someone to go over the process with me thoroughly, because the way people explain it over the internet makes it seem that they expect me to be a professional at it, so they use this little science words like PH 5.0 or something blah blah blah. Sorry if I seem like an idiot, but I’m a 100% first-timer at raising my own fish, so any extra beginners tips would be highly appreciated! :)
Oh and btw, what should I put at the bottom of the tank? Gravel? Sand? Nothing?
