Here's the rent increase quote of Alberta: Rent Increases: Notice and Timing There are no rent controls in Alberta. Rent can only be increased if there has not been a rent increase within the previous 365 days or since the start of the tenancy, whichever is later. Before the rent can be increased the landlord must give the following written notice: weekly: 12 full tenancy weeks monthly: 3 full tenancy months any other periodic tenancy: 90 days So Alberta doesn't have any sort of % cap of rent increment.

I can see their concern, water can cause huge problems for a property owner and insurance policies do not cover mould removal/remediation, however caused.

Fish are pets. So did you not tell your landlord that you planned to set up a fish tank so that you could work an agreement with your landlord and put it into contract as an amendment or some such thing? If you just did it assuming that it would be OK then I can see the landlord being upset about it.

All in all, he was just saying he don't want to listen to anything. The tank has to be out. Its his business and he doesnt care about the tenant - yes that's what he said I am already looking for house and I will obviously make sure that I have a tank to accompany me. If required, I will bring the new landlord to show the tank so there's so misunderstanding.

I have found if you ask up front "can I have an aquarium" before you move into a new place/sign a lease, the landlord will be fine with it. One time I had to put down an extra security deposit, which is legal for the landlord to ask if you have a pet. Most leases do specifically mention no waterbeds/aquariums unless permission is given, although I know that wasn't the case with your lease.
Good luck finding a new place though! I don't think you will have trouble finding one that will allow an aquarium. He sounds like a bad landlord, so it is probably best to get out of there anyway. Moving an aquarium is a huge PITA unfortunately. |

This is a good idea. Even if your current landlord was Ok with your 20g, it would have been prudent to mention your upgrade plans. You did add a sump and a bit more complexity to your system. As a non-hobbyist the setup, however simple you might think it is can appear overwhelming.
