Yep. If you pick fish who like decent flow, or have a large enough tank, they should be great.
Ok great, and I heard this suction cups are hell to put in place, is that so?

The venturi add on or the flow ducting attachment? I ran the venturi so I could ditch a sponge filter. The flow ducting attachment helped some, but my gourami just couldn't tolerate the flow.
The flow duct thing, but this wouldn’t be a problem if my stocking can handle high flow right?

I've got one that I had in a 40 breeder. I found the flow to be too much for my pearl gourami and removed it, otherwise it was a very nice filter. It was quiet and moved a lot volume. Once I move my gourami I'm going to fire it up again, I think my amazon puffers would dig the flow.
This is without the add on hose?

Hey guys so my friend has a question he has a spotted Congo puffer in a 14 gallon tank the dimensions are 15 x 15 x 15. He asked me my opinion on it. I did reasearch and it seems to be ok since his puffer is full grown and a species only, but I want to see what you think and also if it helps his tank is heavily planted.
Definitely a little small , I think puffer prefer long tanks over squares

Agree, 5-6 dwarf shrimp (Neocaridina) and a snail or 2 - depending on the size and species of snail but I would do a single thorned nerite for that size tank since they are solid workhorse snails and more than one would run out of algae to eat.
Ohhh yess , beautiful critters. This is mine definitely very good at controlling algae

Hi everyone! I'm trying to help set up a little aquarium for my mum in her living room. Does anyone have suggestions for stocking an unheated 2.5 gallon tank? I've already discussed shrimp with her and she is open to the idea, she just wanted to know if there are any fish that would work and I can't think of any. Thanks for your help!
I think you can only do shrimp or snails, since the tank is quite small and not heated

"Fish don't have feelings/don't experience pain"--I've been told this by multiple people who consider catch and release to be a non-event for the fish.
I also did not major in biology, but it seems common sensical to me that any creature that lives in an environment where sharp spines, branches, etc. could scratch or impale them if they didn't avoid running into them is a creature that has nerve endings that tell it "don't do that", i.e. pain.
There are many studies on this and most agree that fish feel pain ,they just disagree on how much pain they feel

So, if I'm understanding this, the majority of breeders of goldfish are in Asia, and since Asian shoppers are more willing to pay for typy goldfish, the breeders send their best fish to Asian markets and send the US the more run of the mill fish. That makes sense.
I did read about Asian arowana prices in a book I was reading recently (The Dragon Behind the Glass). It is kind of dazzling that folks will pay those prices for a fish, not because fish are 'worth' less than other high price animals, but because to me fish always seem like something that could die at any time for unknown reasons, whereas with dogs, horses, etc. we have more chance of recognizing and successfully treating illness. Then again, I guess if you have an actual bejillion dollars, losing 400K is not such a big hit, so the purchasers of the 400K arowana are basically taking the same risk as me with my $25 guppies, proportionally.
Yes, because in Asian culture , gold symbolises wealth and luck, so if you have a goldfish you would be blessed with such thing

Stringy AND white is usually not a great thing in any fish for an example. (stringy and brown not a bad thing most of the time)
How about black?

It reminds me of the Lorax Truffula Trees I love Dr. Seuss.
He was actually going for something more bushy
