I remember once when i was i kid that i filled up a 29 gallon with tap water and through an oscar in it the same day and it lived perfectly fine.

I was just wondering how this is possible lol

PS. He was later moved to a bigger tank
 
i get what hes saying cause normally tanks need to cycle before you add fish into it.

And he just got the fish filled a tank with tap water and put it in with no cycling of the tank.
 
Keyword: Oscar. Extra Hardy Fish

If you did that with a Discus or something like that, i believe there would be a different outcome
 
This is what 90% of fosh keepers do since most people have never heard of cycling. Don't feel bad, when I was 4 I dumped a bag of flour int the tank and cranked up the heater because I was hungry. No survivors but atleqst my mom caught me before I thought they were done.
 
The dumbest thing I ever did was listen to the LFS when they said, "sure that porcupine puffer will be fine in your 10 gallon"... Upgrade came quick after that...
 
That is the cruelest thing i have ever heard. But absolutely halarious to read and u diddnt know any better. The things kids do some times lol.
