Hey I have a small floor stand that is 25 1/2 inches in Length and 1 ft in width what is the maximum size tank I should put on it?
The width will limit the tank size. The largest tank would be a 25 gallon tank. If you choose this size, make sure the stand can support upwards of 300lbs. That is what the tank will weigh once filled and set up.

I have 2.5 gallon bowl ...which fish breed can i kept in it
It's not really recommended to keep fish in bowls with no filtration. And 2.5 gallons isn't really big enough for much. A Beta fish may possibly do ok in it if you can maintain it. But I would recommend more doing plants and a few snails or ghost shrimp type of animals in a bowl that size.

I have 2 salmenese tiger fish and two smaller fish in approximately 3.5 L bowl. I bought them on 1 April. 3 act normal but one act abnormal from first day. One salmenese tiger fish doesn't move much first it stayed at bottom now it's gapping at surfa
The bowl looks definitively a bit small for the two fishes. To understand exactly what is going on you need to approach this problem radically but logically. Begin by submitting a water sample for quality testing. Most pet stores will do this for free or a nominal fee. Clinical examination should always include a water quality check, even if you have done so already. Water testing should be performed with a quality test kit, measuring NH4, NO2 and NO3. High ammonia levels, PH imbalances may be responsible for these signs. Oxygen concentration and quality of the filters should be determined as well. If water quality is good and there are no major imbalances, your fish should get examined to look for any sign of bacterial/fungal infection and eventually water should be treated. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

My black moor is sick I just got him from the fish store along with a goldfish to add with my other goldfish in a ten gallon tank I did a big water change because there was slot of nitrate and nitrite when I put him in the tank after that I noticed h
Check the water quality again use a liquid home test kit or submit a water sample for testing. The local Petco may do this for free or for a small fee Aim for an absence (0 ppm) of ammonia AND nitrites. Nitrates can be 20 ppm or less. Perform another partial water change, no more than 30% total volume, at a time. Use only conditioned water that is temperature matched to prevent stress or shock. Goldfish are cold water fish and do best between 65 F and 72 F. Additionally, a 10 gallon tank may be insufficient for 2 goldfish and a Black Moor. Goldfish produce a larger than average bio-load (waste) which can quickly overwhelm a small tank and after. Ideally, provide 20 gallons for one goldfish and an extra 10 gallons per fish. The filter should be rated for at least twice the volume of the tank. Even with a string filter, partial water changes and regular cleaning/vacuuming will be needed to maintain water quality.
