i fish in freshwater, lakes, ponds, rivers, up in the Sierra Nevada mountains. so i don’t need to know about the ocean tides or anything.

again, in terms of the new and full moon.

And vice versa (fresh to salt). So i expect 4 answers here =D

I just moved from New York to Florda. I left my 4 fish tanks with my uncle. They were freshwater and I had agressive fish in 2 tanks (1 in each tank) and the other one had some chiclids (not sure spellings right). I think I am going to start a saltwater tank now. Should I start it?
I have had those tanks for 2 years each.
edit:

I had a brackish for 1 year, they didn’t surve the black out in that one summer.

I am getting 55 gallon aquarium. I just bought a 10 gallon that I have as a freshwater. I’ve had it a week and I really screwed up…but the fish are doing fine, so I am feeling a little more confident. I just basically want to know which kind of aquarium is easier to care for, and if I was to go with a saltwater aquarium, how much do nice looking fish and supplied cost monthly? Also, how much work goes into a salt water aquarium compared to freshwater?

I recently purchased two dragon eels, approximately 5 inches long each. The main question i have is how long will they be able to get along with my freshwater angelfish (3 in. tall for now)
also, my roomate has had a dragon eel in a 20 gallon freshwater tank along with a bala shark and a small school of scisortail rasboras (I think that’s what they’re called), and i’ve been looking around online and things that i read say that the dragon eel is a saltwater fish that prefers a cooler temp. I’m wondering, if this is true how is my roommate’s eel still alive? Or is it true, what can YOU tell me about the dragon eel?

I just bought blue damsels, and I have always had freshwater. Is it the same way to introduce? If not, how do you do it?

I have had saltwater fish tanks, and it has been many MANY years since I had freshwater. How long to put some fish in?
