There are many advantages of owning an aquarium, the pride of a beautiful environment established in your living room, to the satisfaction of rewarding hobby. Science has also shown that watching an aquarium can actually reduce your lower your blood pressure! But if you are not careful, you will not have a happy experience, and although the fish seem warm May, small things can erase your tank carefully planned. You can ensure that this does not happen to you ensuring that you follow a few simple rules and make sure you do not make mistakes.
Cleaning your aquarium
Many years ago, I came to the house dead dead aquarium. Aghast, I asked my family what had happened while I was there. Guilty faces, my husband explained that he thought he would clean the tank. But instead of doing so in the right direction, he dumped all the fish in a bucket of water (that I used for washing floors) and washing tanks, with a glass ammonia-based clean. This is the last time someone hit me, but reservoirs.
To keep my own aquarium, I use scraper and algae. If the tank is too green, I empty quarter of the tank, using an aspiration to collect excess waste and replenish with water that has sat overnight. If you really think that it is indeed necessary to clean your entire aquarium, fish and save half the water in a bucket of food security and to dump the tank. Wash all under the clean running water. If you feel you need to use abrasive salt. Nothing else.
Underfeed rather than Overfeed
Now, I do not advocate your hungry fish, but one of the worst things you can do to an aquarium is more than feed your fish. When you overfeed, fish passes more waste. This makes not only a reservoir dirty mess, but the chemical composition of water in your aquarium and also clog your filtration system. The fish should be fed what they can eat in 3 minutes for the top fish, or 15 minutes for bottom feeding fish or timid. Yes, people will come as piranhas hungry every time you go through the tank, but you feed your cat or dog all the time, he asked for more? Of course not, to realize that fish too begging. May It seems like you are not feeding your fish anything, but if you think about the size of their stomachs are you will realize that they must actually little food
Do not put too many fish in the tank
It is easy to overcrowd your aquarium, as it seems May large and small fish to consider and, of course, there are so many fish in the aquarium pet, but the aquarium is generally a dual filtration system. The general rule is four gallons in each fish and if you assume the fish are only an inch long each (excluding tail fins), so that should be 5 fish in a tank 20 gallons. Remember that in most elderly care books aquarium is different, but the 4 gallons to each fish is the most reliable amount.
Get a large tank.
Even if you think May, a smaller reservoir will be easier to clean, this is not the case at all. More aquarium, the tank is more to follow. Small tankers and vessels cleaning should be kept because they get dirty very quickly, but with the right amount of fish there, the greater the aquarium, after less research they need.
With these few steps, you'll be on your way to have a beautiful, trouble-free as the aquarium with a minimum of care, will be central to your decor.
