    No clean filter or water change aquarium?

    My brother might be around for some of the summer so I can ask him to do basic care. I am still considering the stocking options. Would it be possible to have: discus/African cichlids/a community tank. Is there any way to do this?

    No clean filter or water change aquarium?

    I could do that but what if I used a wet dry system that went through an aquaponics system? I also might be able to make an automatic feeder because the store bought ones I hear are very iffy.

    40 gallon fish stocking?

    Yeah, I was just confused because the pet smart website I was looking at said they needed a minimum of 40 gallons which I know now is completely misleading. Anyway do you think I could keep any type of shark? Or discus, angelfish and a gourami? Would a single oscar work? Because some...
