My wife and I decided we wanted to get our daughter a fish, and we went to a pet store and we purchase a 5.5 gal tank (because that is what we wanted to start with and have space for). We purchase 2 mollies to put in the tank, one died after the first night. We went back and got 2 more grow tetras and a africa dwarf frog, Within 5 hours the 2 tetras died. The Mollie and frog seem to be doing fine... I have a filter and light for the aquarium (light is on a timer and is on about 10 hours a day).
The girl at the pet store acted like she knew what she was doing but you can never really be sure about what they actually know.
I would just like some advice on what I need? Air Pump???, Heater???...
And what kind of fish would I be able to keep in this tank.... We don't want a lot of fish but would like to be able to have a 2-3 fish, my daughter loves watching them swim around and loves watching the frog.
Any information would be great...
Thanks!!!!!!!
