Angels are my fav tropical fish but this tank will only accommodate 1 fish:10 gallons of water per angel. They come in many varieties & colors.

Unfortunatly a 10gal tank does restrict your choice to fairly small fish.

But I would suggest getting either a Betta or a Dwarf Gourami, and a small group of Cory catfish.

i am planning on buying a betta from thailand from aquabid and when i made inquires i was told the fish would be shipped in a styrofoam container with a heat pack … it would be overnighted to canada from thailand and then overnighted from the person who receives the fish in canada to me … all fish are shipped this way … every fish you see in pet stores are shipped this way …

They ship the fish in bags, in boxes. The fish do get shifted around but they are packed tightly in boxes in bags so are safe. The boxes are packed with insulator to keep the water at an even temperature, though the water ends up out of our fishes optimal range, fish are tougher then people think and will not be harmed as long as they are acclimated properly. If the package is dropped then the goods may be damaged – like with shipping anything insurance is the safe bet, and things can go wrong even if they usually don’t. I prefer to choose and buy my fish locally, but the couple of times I have ordered online I got all my fish safely.

Same as they ship fish to fish stores and pet stores.

They’re put into a bag with enough air to last the trip, and hot/cold packs are used depending on the weather. The box is generally marked that it contains live animals, so the delivery person usually takes extra care in making sure not to drop it; but if it happens, you can have your money returned.

I actually have had a delivery person drop a package containing live fish before. I actually witnessed him THROW the package onto my step. Two of the fish were DOA, and I’m not sure if the drop caused it, but the delivery service refunded my shipping and the company refunded me for the two fish.
