Freshwater Beginners A place where freshwater aquarium fish beginners can go to post their questions and hopefully get responses from those more experienced. Also check out the Freshwater Fish Beginner's Guide and Aquarium Setup Guides. Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

You could, take it back or put in another tank lol.or you could use a breeder's net or b-box lol hope this helps, or you could divide the tank and see if that helps bella

Is your aquarium info up to date? It says this tank is only 2 weeks old? How long have the fish and other inhabitants been in the tank?
I don't know anything about frogs or lobsters but if your tank is only 2 weeks old and you have had a few fish die and now the lobster is dead, I'd say something is wrong with your tank. Maybe it's not cycled yet.
I would suggest taking some gravel or a filter from the ten gallon to add some bacteria to your new tank.

yes i put fish in my tank when it was set up only 24 hours and that was before i new about cycling my tank which i found out about on here, my neons just disapeared i thought that it was the lobster but he was sick,probably from water conditions,after he died i had two more go missing so i think it is my rope fish eating them, i have only one left now.
