Game fish and bait fish specifically in wildwood nj, also can you cast net in a bay?

My dad said tropical fish are saltwater and colwater fish are freshwater, but I disagree, I say tropical fish are fish that like plants and coldwater fish are fish that like clear spaces to swim….?
Addition Question: Are Tetras (Neon Tetras) Tropical or Coldwater fish?

How hard is it to maintain a saltwater fish tank?

I’ve recently gotten very interested in having/caring for pet fish. I had a Betta for the past 13 months, it just died however. So now I’m thinking about looking into getting a saltwater tank, but I’m not sure how much maintenance they require. How difficult is it to keep a saltwater tank? What advice would you give?

The main thing I’m worried about is cleaning the tank. My betta tank seemed to acquire algae really fast and I would end up having to spend like 3-4 hours cleaning it every couple of weeks. How hard is it to keep a saltwater tank clean? Are there any types of saltwater fish or plants that help reduce algae buildup? Thanks for your help!

I will have lots of tall fake grass, a few rocks and such. What tropical fish go together good? This is a pure display tank for show in my house. I want some swimming at the top, bottom and throughout the entire tank. They also have to live well with eachother and make a beautifully scene. Thanks to all legitimate answers!

        Well, I have a 00 budget for new fishtanks this year. This year I decided to get a new 75 gal. with another oscar. I have never did salwater before and I imagine after my oscar tank is done I will have about 0-0 left over. With this I would like to set up a very small saltwater tank. Is it possible to have a reef tank very small? I have never did saltwater tanks before, so I would like to start small anyway. I think maybe like a 5 gallon? I have heard of people successfully keeping, I believe a type of damsel, in a 5 gallon saltwater tank with live rock and an anenome. Is this ok to do? How much would it cost me? Thanks for any answers!

          Saltwater Tank????

          I have a 55- gallon saltwater tank with a few large pieces of live rock and a couple damsels. I noticed the other day on some of my live rock this very small thing (looks kinda like a feather duster) that kept popping in and out of a very small hole on the side of my live rock. What could it be? Is it bad? And how did it get there?
