If you are interested in your fish living as well as they possibly can, you have to pay attention to all the details which have to do with the aquariums they live in.
In fact, this goes both for saltwater and freshwater fish, therefore, both with saltwater and freshwater aquariums.
Everything starts with your aquarium being clean.
There are different opinions when it comes to how often you should change the water in the aquarium, some specialists claiming that you should do it every two weeks, other claiming that you should do it every two months.
Of course, this issue is a bit relative because if your fish are living in dirty water, you shouldn't hesitate when it comes to cleaning it because if you do, your fish will probably die in a short period of time.
The first sign with water being dirty is the large number of algae and the large amount of debris, both of them jeopardizing the life of your fish more than you can even imagine.
Cleaning an aquarium requires a few tools.
One of them is a container where you have to put the fish while you are changing their water and an important thing is to choose the container so that your fish can swim in it while they are taken out from their ordinary habitat.
Also, you will have to use a fish net, towels, a water pitcher, a sponge, a rag and a food drainer, all of these playing their role when it comes to offering your fish the best conditions to live in.
Passionate fish keepers don't consider fish keeping so difficult, but it requires a bit of research.
However, everything you learn from books or from the Internet will help with living a more peaceful life next to your fish.
