The rule of thumb for stocking levels in a freshwater aquarium is 1 inch of fish per gallon of aquarium. For instance, five 1" guppies in a 5 gallon tank, or ten 3 inch cichlids in a 30 gallon aquarium.
10% water changes every week and 25% water changes every month is standard for all size tanks.
This is a BIG NO NO!! Bettas need at least 2.5 gallons of water to themselves, and if you put a male and a female together, it will most likely result with you have two dead bettas. Keep your boy and girl in separate 2.5 gallon heated tanks.
Front tanks could be : 18 gallon plastic 17 gallon steel 19 gallon steel - 2 tube port 19 gallon steel - 3 tube port ----------------------------------------- Rear tanks could be : 18 gallon steel 19 gallon plastic ( all figures are for U.S. gallon ) so combined , 35 gallons to 37 gallons depending on equipment
Yes, you can buy pre-made tanks with dividers already in them, or you can buy a 10, or even 20 gallon tank and buy dividers to place in the tank yourself.
No. You should never put any fish in a bowl. 1. They don"t live as long in bowls rather than they do in tanks. 2. With a bowl you would have to clean it out every three days. 3. The fish will be miserable in a bowl so a bowl is a bad idea. If you cant afford a tin gallon tank then get a five gallon it"s small and it will make your fish much happier rather than living in a bowl. Your fish will thank you for not putting them in a bowl. Hope this helped.

Betta fish can be comfortable in tanks large or small. Large tanks can provide space for your betta, while small tanks keep your betta from being stressed. Whichever kind of tank works for you best is just fine!
Only 1. Usually a Betta is all that is kept in a 3 gallon tank
No, you don't have to do it. I have four glofish in a 2-and-a-half galon, but I advise you not to do it. Six inches of fish in a three gallon is too much. I advise you to either not get a fish or to get another tank, unless you want one of your fish to die.
They cost around $10-20 depending where you buy them and what features they have. I would recommend buying a bigger fish tank like a 10 Gallon. They are very cheap, about $10.00 maybe $12.00. A 10 Gallon will do better and make the fish happier. The only reason to get a smaller tank is if you don't have very much space. You and your fish will be happier with a 10 Gal though. Your fish will grow larger, be more healthy and live longer. The rule of thumb is 1 Gal for each inch of fish you have.
Depends on the kind and size of the fish. You should also take in to consideration how large they will get at adulthood. A good rule of thumb to go by is 1 gallon of water for every 1 inch of fish. So for example: 3 2" fish should be in at least 6 gallons of water. To be safe I would put them in a 10 gallon aquarium.
