PLEASE stop messing with your fish! Every few days you post about how you moved these fish here or put this flowerpot in here or put this castle in here or tore down the whole tank and cleaned it. Please, for the sake of your fish just leave them in the tanks they are in now and do nothing to them except feed them and change the water and you will have a lot more success as a fish keeper. I wouldn't move any more fish around until you setup bigger tanks. Every time you move a fish or add something to the tank or break down the tank it stresses out the fish. That is why they hide a lot and you keep losing fish. They need some peace.

well everybody complained of my alge problem so i cleaned the tank out and cleaned teh alge and all. and itsbeen 4 days since i did a water change ( dont worry i dont tank all te water out i leave 40 percent but i just did my whole tank cause of alge today ) i do 50% ater change every 4 days..

I understand why you think you needed to do it but now your tank is going to cycle again and you run the risk of losing your fish. I would just leave them be for a while now.
 
I just had to do it, I dont care if someone else did. (signature)
 
CB, I noticed a couple times you posted twice in a row within a couple minutes. Please edit your original post and add, instead of posting multiple times in a few minutes. Thanks.

do u think my fish will love it better then what there old tank looked like??? and will my fish still grow?

To be queit honest I think they HATE IT SO MUCHHH!!!! No places to hide or nothing to interact with as a natural enviroment like sand and wood and plants. Fish need to feel comfortable in their enviroment otherwise they will be stressed and possibly die. They will NOT breed ( as your hoping I assume) in a stressful enviroment. Honestly I don't think they care about algae in their tank, but if anything they like it because it gives them a little cover from life outside the box. Try saving up some money and provide a natural enviroment for them. At that point they will LOVE THE TANK. Oh and I rate it a 3 on a scale 1-10 only because it's cleaner now.
