Framed by the picturesque Wasatch and Uninta Mountains is one of the most unique lakes in the world, the Great Salt Lake in North America, that is located northwest of Salt Lake City in the state of Utah. The water has a high salt content and few creatures are able to survive within its waters. However, numerous rare species of water fowl can be found along its banks. Salt water shrimp and brine shrimp are the staple diet of the birdlife that inhabits the Great Salt Lake and it is only in the tributaries of the lake that fish are to be found. Due to the loss of its natural outflows, the Great Salt Lake lost its water by evaporation, thus creating its saltiness. The lake’s four tributaries carried various minerals from the surrounding mountains into the lake and its salt content further increased. Depending on the water level, the salt content in some sections of the lake can reach up to twenty seven percent, only the Dead Sea contains more salt. The Great Salt Lake is a remarkable and unique lake and its origin and unusual beauty make it a true miracle of nature!

Are these fish compatible?

I was going to have 6 glo lite tetras, 6 harlequin rasboras, 6 cardinal tetras, and 2 otos in my 30 gallon tank. I was also going to have 3 red cherry shrimp. Then I was thinking about having either a female betta or a dwarf gourami. Which one do you think would do best? There are plenty of hiding spots, the pH is 7.1, and I will feed them TetraMin tropical flakes everyday, Hikari bloodworms twice a week, and Hikari brine shrimp once a week.
What do you think?
Are the fish compatible?

How often should I clean my filters system in my saltwater tank?

I’ve had my tank setup for around five months now and the filter system only been cleaned once. how often should it be clean? I have a Fluval 304 unit.I have a 40 gallon tank. I have… 1 shrimpgoby, 2 pajama cardinal, 2 percula clownfish, 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 red general starfish. All of my fishes diet are different, some eat pellet, flake, brine or meaty. I have my tank water change every six weeks by a prof. however I only had my filter system cleaned once. So again how often should I have my filter system cleaned so my fishes can stay healthy.
Also should i clean my tank more often?
I just had my filter system cleaned two days ago.

i got some freshwater and saltwater questions?

ok here they are:

i want to get a 30g nano reef tank with a bangai cardinal and a percula clown fish with a chalk basslet(that purple and yellow one with no long fins like the fairy basslet) and a live rock. is that ok?

im hatching brine shrimp in a 1 litre plastic bottle and i filled it up to like a bit more than 3/4 of the wole thing. how much salt? i added some but don’t remember how much. there is an air stone in it too. and i boiled the water and let it cool and the temp. of the water is 30 deggrees celcius. ive put them in scince 25-29 hours ago. when will they hatch? and can i keep some adults in the saltwater im getting?

i put in 2 of my tiger barbs orange and green in a breeding box. the green one is a female and seemed to be pregnant and it doesn’t have dropsy. they haven’t been killing eachother but the male is chasing the female atm. when do you think they will lay thier eggs?

is it ok to grow the brine shrimp in a chubby drink bottle(that soft drink)?

i think thats all but remember that if you ask me a question like if, idk the barb has a reddish nose than come back looking as i will answer it(Kinda like a forum).
oh ya here is my other question:

i have a female betta and it seems pregnant. there is no other betta is the tank. is it really pregnant?
