My Fish

Well as of now, I only have three fish; a minnow, a Dalmatian Lyretail Molly, and a Red Mickey Mouse Platy. Each fish has different requirements and behavior.
Some minnow behaviors and requirements include:

• Most minnows do well in single-species groups in 20-gallon aquariums with canister or trickling filtration 
• water changes 
• They do well on a diet of flakes
• Most cannot tolerate heat, and some require a chiller. 
• Dart around 
• Don't stay in the same place for too long
•  Not affected as much as other fish to certain levels or ammonia or nitrate
• Male minnows make a knocking sound when threatened by other males
• Have a bubbler to keep oxygen in the water
• Only need to be fed once a week
