Questions
What is the amount of gallons in the large container?
- Hi SaIsGa, Good day! It is 3 gallons. Thanks

Why is this tank "Not ideal for use as a long-term or permanent tank for fish"? Is the reason strictly the size, or is the material not safe for long term use?
- It's the size, keeping a fish in this long term isn't fair to the fish, no matter the size, and because it's small, keeping the tank clean over time is extremely difficult.

We are going on vacation for 4 days and don't have anyone who can check on/feed our betta . Can we use this to take our betta with us?
- Hello! A little late, but if a situation ever pops up like this again, I wouldn't recommend taking your fish with you as it can easily stress them out. Instead just buy a ood dispenser as they sell them and they work well. Just make sure you buy one for fish and read the directions.

Is this tank big enough/small enough to hold goldfish fry (these fish will not be in it we are just cleaning up there other tank)
Hi, I have a male adult Mississippi Map, whose carapace is around 5 inches. We have a 70-gallon tank at home, but we are going on a vacation for three weeks and will leave him in a local pet shop for boarding. The shop only allows a 20-gallon tank. Would it be okay for my turtle to be in a 20-gallon tank for a few weeks?
I bought a few baby Bettas, the person at the Petco counter TOLD ME that these fish CAN STAY in the tubs they came in (NOT BAGS) until they get too big! If they can live in these tubs at the store cant they live in the tubs in my loving home?? How big is too big? I have bee told they have to be moved to a BIG tank, like, 2 or 3 gallons, is there any way I can get cheap ones?? If I properly clean, add sulfrate and healthy water could I make a DIY tank out of a food container? HELP ME SAVE DUSTIN
Can I put my Bettas in a LARGE plastic food container if it is a good size and has good structure?
I have my 1-year-old goldfish in a 5-gallon tank. I do frequent water changes and he has a filer and an air bubble thing. I plan on taking him to my grandfather's outdoor koi/goldfish pond when he outgrows his tank. His fish are really big.Is it safe for me to transfer him to this?Even if he doesn't outgrow it soon in a year and a half I will be moving and he will have to go there anyway. Is there any tips to help him transfer easily? My room is quite warm. Should I do it when weather is warm?
How would I transport a goldfish? I am going to college and it's at least a 6 hour drive and I am staying in a hotel for one night. How would you suggest I transport him without stress?
Going to be bringing a few guppies home, probably all females for simplicity sake. We have the 10 gallon tank, master test kit, heater, filter, some Omega One guppy food, and the proper decorations. But I would like to know any tips on how to safely bring them home in my car. (We still have to cycle the tank, so no rush.) We will be getting them from an actual pet store, definitely no Walmart or Meijer fish as those tend to be much less healthy.
Hello! I’ve been thinking about purchasing a leopard gecko and I’m not sure if your know anything about this but, would it be okay to use a fish tank that was originally used for a hamster?
I found a baby turtle upside-down in a puddle about the size of a plate. He was barely moving, and there was no creek within a few miles. I took him in and got a 10 gallon tank. I went to a creek and got some water from that, and some little rocks and made a habitat. I got a best lamp as well. What should I do? Should I keep him and care for him? Also, what should I feed him? I sent some pics to tell size and type.
We have a large 5-year-old goldfish. I was walking by his aquarium (he's in a 20 gallon, but we are almost ready to transfer him to a 55 gallon), and he had an explosive poop! I've never seen him do this. What should I do?
My fish is gone like I don’t know where it went. I had 4 fish living together in a 5 gallon tank. The fish are big but I don’t want to get another tank as that would be a lot of work.I only have fish they are my only pets so it’s not like a cat ate them or something. I have never cleaned their tank and now it’s kinds brown I have had these fish for 3 months. What happed to it. The picture is of the remaining 3.
I’m getting a 20 gallln tank and I would like to know what are the best tropical freshwater fish that I could get? I would like to get a pleco, but he would get to big for my tank, so I’m wondering if I could donate him to my locomotive petco in The Dalles Oregon? Thank you I love PetCoach!!!
