Hello all, I have a 10-gallon tank with danios and live plants (which only three one-inch bristlenose cories). What is the Maximum Recommended Minimum amount of water flow? I've looked the question up on the internet and most sites say that it depends on the fish species. I've also heard...

Hi everyone! I got my first 20 gallon tank at Christmas to set up in my office and I LOVE it. There were some hardships and losses in January-February while I learned about the nitrogen cycle and some danios paid the price. :( I had to stop naming them. :( But then I bucked up, got the Tetra...

So I've recently adopted three Neon Danios (I think they're also called Glofish) from my sister. They're in a smallish tank, I think five gallons. I've read around that Danios work best in schools of five to six, but also that they should have at least ten gallons. I can't afford a new tank...
