How to Choose Aquarium Fish?
If you're new to this important matter as choosing fish for your new aquarium, it could cause a lot of mistakes that lead to the premature death of your pet.
First of all, before you buy the Aquarium itself, to decide who you will be there live. It may be small harmless aquarium fish types mollies and guppies, it may be exotic species and even predators like piranhas. Determine appropriate both for selecting a suitable soil and design an aquarium, and in order to properly organize all vital functions of a small underwater world in a single apartment.
I strongly advise you not to succumb to the first impulse to run, buy a fish and enjoy. The momentum is good, but do not forget that fish, although they do not have to walk and, vaccinations and cook a separate meal, still require much care and special care.
As you can imagine, all the animals live where they feel comfortable. In the space of aquarium fish are forced to live in those conditions that create them is you. Other choice they have is not there. Therefore, we must carefully examine the types that you intend to buy. Now selling a range of specialized literature for beginners in this field and for those who already have some experience.
Should pay particular attention to the following points:
- Habitat for fish: water temperature, acidity, turbidity, vapidity, and so on. From this first of all depends, what other types you can settle this fish. Acidity and temperature are set at the aquarium. Current copies can easily change these figures.
- Ration of fishes: predator or not, that still is in its «dining table». It is also necessary to know, otherwise inoffensive neighbors predator can in a day or two be eaten. You do not want this fate for them? Another thing, if you will live predators or «mixed» - as there are fish, which sometimes need someone to eat ... The laws of nature - nothing you can do about it.
When making an aquarium, be sure to artificial shelters - put the broken artificial pot or amphora, make grotto. Keep in mind that before you put a new thing in the aquarium, it must be boiled to avoid falling into the aquarium bacteria.
Grunt. You can collect small pebbles, and you can buy a special primer in a pet shop. At home I lie Dutch - fine and look a few years did not deteriorate. Keep in mind - some like to fish for themselves build up their «home», and drag and drop marbles in his mouth from one side of the aquarium to another. It is therefore extremely important that the bottom there were no sharp objects, potentially dangerous for your pets. Should also pick up ground, depending on the size and features of your future fish.
Plants. You can buy live plants, but there must also be sure to consult with vendors and with specialized publications - some of them will not bring harm to fish. Many fish have a need to periodically replenish their diet, gnawing live plants in an aquarium. You can buy artificial plants - such gnawing no one will. Modern artificial plants do not differ from the present, and not always possible to immediately identify it. But they must be periodically cleaned, so that was not the source of bacteria in the water.
Here, perhaps, the most basic, you need to know beginners aquarium fish. I sincerely hope that your pets receive the necessary care and all the conditions for a long and happy life with fish - to please you and your loved ones!
