davisjessicaaof asked:


Hi,

I was looking for freshwater fish that can live in a 55 gallon tank that might not be exactly a “community fish” and can be somewhat aggressive, or at least ward off attacks if another fish was in pursuit.

Do you know of any fish that would fit the description?

Thanks!

ChelsCutie asked:


I have several freshwater fish and several live plants. What is the best way to move the tank?? Should I drain out most of the water and then move the tank?? Or drain all of the water, remove the fish and plants, and then move the tank?? Also, if I need a seperate tank, can I dump the fish in right away if it’s the same water, or do I have to start with fresh water and let it cycle through the new tank. Any feedback and help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
