QUESTION: In my aquarium, I have a pump that makes bubbles in the tank. Does the tank that you have your fish in have a pump? How big of bubbles does it make? How do they know which way is up? ANSWER from Marilyn Vasques on April 27, 1998: Our tank does have a pump that circulates water but we don't bubble air into the water like you do in your aquarium. Air flows through a special filter that allows only oxygen into the water so there are no bubbles.
