  2. Freshwater aquarium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_aquarium

    For a tropical fish tank, maintaining a warm environmental temperature ranging between 75 and 86 °F (24 to 30 °C) enables different tropical fish to thrive at different temperatures. [2] Aquarium substrate usually consists of sand or gravel. Aquarium substrate is important for the fish's health and replicating their natural environment.

    They are a hardy fish that will tolerate temperature changes, pH changes, and other factors to which other fish may be sensitive. The water pH should be 6.0–8.0. The preferable water hardness for this species is soft to medium (5.0–12.0 dGH). Water temperature should be kept between 22–28 °C (72–82 °F). [3]

  4. Ocean temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_temperature

    The ocean temperature plays a crucial role in the global climate system, ocean currents and for marine habitats. It varies depending on depth, geographical location and season. Not only does the temperature differ in seawater, so does the salinity. Warm surface water is generally saltier than the cooler deep or polar waters. [1]

  5. Guppy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guppy

    Guppies prefer a hard-water aquarium with a temperature between 25.5 and 27.8 °C (78 and 82 °F) and salt levels equivalent to one tablespoon per 19 L (5 US gal). [60] They can withstand levels of salinity up to 150% that of normal seawater , [ 61 ] which has led to them being occasionally included in marine tropical community tanks, as well ...

  6. Tropical fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_fish

    Tropical fish is a term commonly used to refer to fish that are kept in heated aquariums. Freshwater tropical fish are more commonly kept than saltwater tropical fish due to the common availability of fresh water sources, such as tap water, whereas salt water is not commonly available and has to be recreated by using fresh water with sea salt additions.

  7. Tiger barb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_barb

    They live in Indonesia, Borneo, tropical climates and prefer water with a 6.0–7.5 [5] pH, a water hardness of 5–19 dGH, and a temperature range of 77 – 82 °F or 25 – 27.8 °C. Their discovery in swamp lakes subject to great changes in water level suggests a wide tolerance to water quality fluctuations. Their average lifespan is 7 years.

    Many color and tail pattern varieties exist. They generally need a ratio of 1 male to 2 females or more. All guppies and mollies are hardy fish that tolerate lower oxygen levels and temperatures than most aquarium fish, give birth to live young, and readily breed in home tanks. [58] can live in full sea water [59] 66 °F - 84 °F (19 °C - 29 °C)

  9. Sea surface temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_surface_temperature

    A wet-bulb temperature at 500 hPa in a tropical atmosphere of −13.2 °C (8.2 °F) is required to initiate convection if the water temperature is 26.5 °C (79.7 °F), and this temperature requirement increases or decreases proportionally by 1 °C in the sea surface temperature for each 1 °C change at 500 hpa.
