What are the easiest aquatic animals to take care of?

Question

Shrimp, crayfish, betta fish,gold fish...

Answer 1

Well, lets see...

1-5, five being the hardest to care for.

1's

Bettas, altho, if your house goes below 75F you need a heater.

Crayfish, just give them stuff to eat and clean water! They are not picky about water quality.

2's

African dwarf frogs. You need to feed them frozen bloodworms, brineshrimp and other small worms or shrimp.

Small shrimps, they need an already cycled tank.

Dwarf gouramis Kinda territorial

dwarf cichlids

im not gonna go higher b/c you want something easy. NOT GOLDFISH! They are messy and need BIG BIG tanks!!

Answer 2

frogs

Answer 3

beta fish because you do not need a filter for them, you may just have to change its water once a week or less

Answer 4

fish and snails  the beta fish that i've had lived pretty long  

Answer 5

well from what i've read and heard, a betta, but if your planning to get other fish they have to be seperate from the betta because of its aggresive nature, they can stay in fresh water and can be placed in small medium or large bowls without filters, they also can be put in with plants that grow in water, which actually makes a great center peice for tables ;-)

Much luck

Answer 6

I'd would have to say a betta. Here are my reasons,

1 they are the only fish that can live in a 1 gallon bowl

2 they do not need a filter

4 the only need to be fed once or twice a day

5 they are not as messy as goldfish

6 they are really tough and that is why they live so long

Answer 7

Ok no goldfish is NOT east to maintain they CANT live in a bowl they MUST live in a 20 gallon tank they get huge.and they live a long time. I have 3 that are a foot long. and a betta is easy but you need to have it in a 5 gallon tank with a filter. Probably the easiest creature is a frog or  a hermit crab or something.

Answer 8

Gold fish Boring but true.

Answer 9

I reckon guppies are the EASIEST beginner fish to care for... mine lived for quite a while in a 400 gallon pond outside... and so they did good for me considering they're tropical LoL. but yeah probz gup gups.

Answer 10

I personally think that bettas are the easiest because they don't need a filter! I have heard that goldfish need at least a 10 gallon tank to survive and they are very messy so i wouldn't get a goldfish even though people think that they can live in fish bowls. They CANT live in fish bowls PEOPLE!!

Answer 11

i think a betta fish.

u dont need a tank warmer, it lives in room temperature water. and the water can be just softened or regular bottle water (has to be chlorine free, so no tap water) and it can live for a while without food.

i think it dirties the bowl alot tho. i had one, and it did that alot. i gave it to my neighbor, and it kept doing that to.  

Answer 12

Plastic fish

Answer 13

From personal experience, Beta fish are realllllly pretty, and they're so easy to take care of, you only have to feed them once a day and they live a while. I've had mine for almost a year. :)
