Hi I am planning to put my red wolf in a 30 gal tank. The problem is, i DO have a filter, but my dad never likes to keep the filter on during the weekend since that when hes at the house from work. so can my wolf survive in a tank with every thing exxept for a filter for only 2 days each week? please note that filter aren't only for "making thetyank clean" but also to curculate oxygen to underwater fish to "breath". i asked my fish speciallist of my wolf tank without a filter for 2 days but he said my wolf will die. is that true??? Need detailed and experienced answers.

Thanks
 
yes if it provides oxygen, also the filters can house BB and every week ull be killing them off
 
the water filter only pulls 0.3 amps
and the wolf would be ok they breath directly from the air
only thing is the temp and your ammonia
the higher the temp the faster the oxygen deplete and water quality worsens
