If you are just starting out then there is a
lot to learn,if you don't want to end up with a tank full of dead
fish
When you are selecting your fish this is where
lateral thinking is required, in order to save you a ton of money by making the wrong
choices.
Choosing Aquarium Fish
If you can think of fish as a community, that
all have to live together would be the right approach.
Just imagine you are moving house and going to
a new area, and starting a new life, then I am sure you would do your due diligence and do some
research.
Well if you adopt the same
attitude, then this would be a positive step if you want to have beautiful freshwater aquariums
full of happy fish.
What you want to avoid at all costs is
aggressive tropical fish, they can make life a misery for the rest of the
community.
There are a couple of options with regard to
the water, do you want salt water aquarium fish or, freshwater fish species, this is a very
important decision.
Freshwater Fishes
If you are inexperienced then the easiest
option is fresh water fish, they are easier to maintain, and easy to get started. When you become
more experienced you then might want to upgrade to saltwater tropical fish.
Tropical Fishes
All fish are fascinating to watch however, with
regard to tropical aquarium fish, there is more choice, and more in depth
colours.
However, that does come with a new set of
problems that you need to become aware of, the water temperature is
critical.
With regard to freshwater fish they are not so
sensitive to water temperature, and much easier to maintain. If cost is an issue then saltwater
fish are much more expensive.
When you are choosing your fish it is not as
simple as you might think. Lots of people make the mistake of going to the local pet shop,
cast a net into the tank, and take a chance to what you come up with. This is not a smart way the
to stocking your aquarium.
The first consideration is the size of the tank
this is where you must try to think long term. Many people make the mistake of choosing a small
tank and find at a later date they need a bigger one and of course that adds to the
cost.
Take into consideration is, when choosing your
fish to how big the fish will grow. Overcrowded community creates unhappy fish, they
need enough room to swim around and not interfere with one another, stressed out fish will
die.
Another essential thing to take into
consideration is food. Not all fish have the same eating habits. Some fish eat food that is frozen,
others like fresh food, and many feed on flakes.
This can create time consuming issues to
preparing separate portions of food for fish. By choosing fish that all eat the same food can make
life a lot easier.
