If that doesn’t work, you could try pointing out an albino tiger barb, which has orange-ish coloration and has stripes. Many children, especially very young ones, cannot differentiate between a molly and a clownfish. They are often bright orange in coloration. Walk the child into an aquarium store and go straight to the freshwater section and try to locate the Mollies and Platys. That depends on a lot of factors, but here are some options:ġ. Alternatively, if she were routinely fed frozen fish, the water quality would have been so poor in an aquarium due to under-filtration that she and her tank mates (especially Jacques and the anemone) likely wouldn’t have made it. Peach (Starfish) would probably have starved from having nothing to eat – flake food won’t cut it for this creature. Gurgle (Royal Gramma) would probably have been far too large for Gill to eat but would have been the perfect meal ticket for Bloat. Jacques (Cleaner Shrimp) would have long since been lunch for either Bloat (Puffer Fish) or Gill (Moorish Idol). If he didn’t die from exhaustion, injury, or fright, he likely would have succumbed to disease because of a weakened immune system as a result of the stress. Bubbles and Deb would have chased Nemo until he either jumped out of the aquarium or was pinned into a corner and was not allowed to move.
Finding nemo fish names in the tank movie#
If the movie were to be played out in reality, if Bubbles (Yellow Tang) and Deb (Damselfish) were already in the aquarium and Nemo (Clownfish) were suddenly dropped in one day, things would not have gone well. Wouldn’t you rather read it than learn about it through personal experience? It’s a really common occurrence when an aquarium is purchased and filled with creatures impulsively.) Compatibility of Species

If the lowered pH didn’t kill the remaining fish in the aquarium, they would have suffocated due to ammonia damage to their gills. As they decayed, they would produce ammonia and further drop the pH. The first to die would be the anemone and the shrimp. Without something to bring up the pH and keep it stable through a process known as buffering, the waste from the fish would have caused the pH to drop and a chain-reaction of death to occur if no intervention was made. Saltwater aquariums require an aragonite-based substrate (gravel) that helps to keep the water at a high pH. The gravel in the aquarium is regular colored gravel used in many freshwater aquariums. While these are fine for freshwater or fish only saltwater aquaria, they do not provide the amount of light required for anemones to survive. The light on the aquarium was a standard output light that is common on most starter kit aquaria. Without it, having an anemone would be next to impossible and shrimp and starfish would be very problematic. On the aquarium in the movie, there was no protein skimmer which is a critical part of saltwater filtration. There is no way that so many fish could live in such a small water volume with so little filtration. There is a small hang on the back filter that would have come as part of an aquarium kit, intended for a lightly-stocked freshwater aquarium. The aquarium was far too small, giving people the impression that they can keep a quantity of fish together that require far more room. The aquarium in the dentists’ office in the film is probably no larger than 20-30 gallons, which would have meant that these creatures would have been practically stacked right on top of one another. What would happen if these things were all put together in the aquarium in the dentists’ office in Finding Nemo? We would have equipment problems.
