Reply to comment by cutiecat565 in Hi all. Looking to buy my son a goldfish for his birthday - any recommendations on where to get a fish and equipment? Thanks. by aptadnauseum

Lol, it's already half jungle with the plants. I think we need to stick to one biome at a time. Appreciate the help, I'm convinced no goldfish! So, zebras are my first choice after his choice. Can you just buy like a school of them? Do they propagate rapidly? Do they need a heater and a filter?

Yep, you can buy a school. The pet store store will know how many based on the tank size. Every type of fish will need a filter and heater. I wouldn't worry too much about the babies. The other fish just eat them. They make special baby containers that hook onto to the side of the tank if you want to keep them alive, but idk if it's worth it.
