Questions & Answers

Someone else suggested Betta fish to me also, maybe I will try one of those next!
- AUTHOR
Hi Ellison, glad you are liking the naming articles! Fish indeed can be hard to keep. I've had some success with goldfish living for quite a few years . . . they can get quite big. Usually, we let the water sit out overnight, had a small air pump, and kept the tank at a steady temp out of the sun. Betta fish are pretty hardy too. Best of luck!
This is such a fun article! Unfortunately, I have tried multiple times to have a fish tank, and for whatever reason I cannot seem to keep fish alive. Bad water I guess? All I know is if I ever try and get a fish again I will use some of these names!
