In a ten with a betta, Pygmy cories. Nothing else really. In the 15, rosey reds would be fine depending on the footprint.

tall not long

 

[emerald76]

Tall tanks are hard to stock. A small school would be okay not much else.

any diy chillers cuz 50+ for a chiller is not good lol

 

[aqua_holic]

Chillers cost 500 not 50. They are noisy too - your running an engine measured in horsepower....

Freshwater setups do not need chillers because the fish are capable of adapting. Chillers are for SW applications where the organisms cannot adapt to warmer water.

 

[lilme]

sorry ment 500 lol
any way what can i use to get it coler for my goldfish

 

[aqua_holic]

I dont know why you need it below 72 degrees.... The goldfish don't need that.

 

[lilme]

um why do you say that most say they need cold water

 

[aqua_holic]

If you do more than superficial research you'll find that most people who actually keep goldfish don't keep them in cold water. Its mostly the people who don't keep them that say they need cold water. In fact, many use heaters to set a minimum temperature for them.

Goldfish are temperate fish, which means that they adapt to a wide range of temperatures throughout the year. Many a goldfish pond reaches 90 degrees in the summer.

My goldfish are not in cold water and I have had the ones I have now for years they are great adaptors

Males develop bumps around their gills and will be seen nudging at the vents of females. Hahaha they just dive right in.
