Can the Angelfish eat the flower shrimp or the neons once it gets into adult sizes in B?

The shoaling fish don't have shoals in the pictures with them.

What about indiscriminate shoalers? Some fish don't care who they school with just so long as their is a group of fish that are together. Also, consider all the photos to be of different environments.

You guys are good--I'm hoping that your responses will help newbies think about aquariums in a different light. Instead of just looking at tanks, aquarists should first check to see if anything is wrong. Accepting the status quo is a good way to miss some pretty important details; the power of observation is not to be underestimated.

Oh yeah, why is that betta on the gravel?

I'm out of guesses... although the rainbow shark would be unsuitable to that tank with those fish... if assuming the tank is small, that is.

In B there is only one angelfish. Wouldn't that fish become lonly?
In A, the flame tetra should have companions. Tetras are schooling fish you know. I know that sharks can be quarrelsome.

I have a suggestion now. I think that this would be lots of fun if we could get better pictures for the game. What would be cool is if fishchannel would start this game and you would get points depending on how many thing you can think of that are wrong with the picture. We should suggest this to the moderators.

That's a good idea. It's always good for aquarists to brush up on their problem-solving skills.

Here's some food for thought: Why is B so dark? Nearly all the photos include wood and rocks--how can you tell if they're safe for the fish? What about the condition of the plants, is it good or bad?
