2 Gallon

I like dude412's idea

2 Gallon:
2 Guppies
1 African dward frog

Does anyone think it would work out with a small UG filter and a bubbler? I thought it sounded neat for a desk sorta thing.

EDIT: Also, When I asked I ment thrive, not just survive. Thanks!

 

i think guppys might need a bit bigger of a tank and the frog would need a bigger tank and would end up eating the guppys...to make it look real good, jsut go out and hand-pick a betta from your local fishstore that fits what u want in looks.

 

Ya know for some reason I forgot how good a betta would look, Thanks for the suggestion.

 

yea, no problem...what color or finnage type are you going to look for?

 

They have some full red ones that turn blue at the tips as their fins grow longer at Ricks Fish & Pets (Pricy store but very good quality and warrent)

 

exactly how pricey are you tlaking about for them?

 

Well bettas are a bit more reasonable then other fish, but I think it runs about 8 dollars for a male, 6 for a female. Though walmart only wants 4 for either sex I've yet to have a single fish that I've bought from Ricks to die on me, and I've bought somewere around 30 or 40 fish from them.

 

hmm, wow...around here at petsmart, a male is lik $1.99

 

I would go bigger for the guppies, and its best to have an airator in there for them

 

Yea, of course its good Best of luck.

 

How big are those dwarf frog things? Are they good or bad addtions to a tank and what do you feed them?

 

African dwarf frogs (not clawed frogs) get about 1" - 1 1/2" but you should allot at least 2gallons/frog. They're nocturnal so don't expect to see them very much during the day, but when they do come out they're really fun to watch (at least mine are). Most will eat frozen (but thawed) blood worms or frog bites. They're not supposed to like flake food, but mine eat it all the time (took me forever to figure out why they where getting so fat :roll: )

They sound great, except I don't think that my parents would approve of me having any pet that is or resembling a reptile or amphibian of any sort. LOL!

 

Ya know, I thought they were nocternal to when I bought 4 in my 10 gallon but found out they'd become black skirt tetra lunch :x They looked cool at the petstore though :lol: Well I think Im gonna go with the betta and a small UG filter and an even smaller airpump since ive heard bettas don't like heavy current? Thanks for the suggestions and help!

 

yea, heavy currents can cause the fins of bettas to tear a little....goodluck with the betta

 

Why are bettas such popular fish? I'm sorry if this is a stupid question!

 

they are readily available, low in price, dont require big livings spaces, and in my opinion one of the hardiest fish to own. also, they come in beautiful colors and types of finnage.

 

i would go with a betta too

 

Oh, alright!

 

good luck with the betta
that would have been my choice too
