People are often very apprehensive about keeping fish and having an aquarium. In fact there are myths surrounding this 6 myths about keeping an hobby and believing in these can ruin your interest in this wonderful hobby. The few myths that will be busted are as follows: 1. Maintaining a fish tank is very expensive This is absolutely untrue. In fact the bigger the aquarium, the easier it is to maintain. Fresh water fish are very easy to maintain and cost effective. The fresh water fish are hardy and can easily adapt to new surroundings. The only possible expenses that come with maintaining a basic fresh water tank is the fish food, Aquarium filtration and sufficient lighting. These costs are low and maintaining the and changing the water clean. It is highly unlikely that a aquarium becomes easier with these completely may be catfish will keep your tank clean. infrastructure. harmful. 4. Small tanks should be for 2.

Keeping fish month's gap can be managed before keep your tank clear and (especially Goldfish) in a fish changing 30-50 per cent water. bowl is a very bad idea. The The bacteria in the water fish have very little space to helps the fish survive move around and can die easily. 5. Over-populating your tank is harmful This is sadly, another myth. Fish need sufficient oxygen to breath, or they can suffocate in the tank. They also need to have their waste diluted and processed before they poison themselves with it. A fixed amount of water has a fixed capacity to handle these two requirements and only water change periodically is good enough for your tank. 6. Destroying the natural environment Fish that are sold in aquarium pet shops are bred in captivity. These fish cannot survive in the natural surroundings and putting the fish back into the lake or river can actually spoil the ecosystem. These fish cannot survive in a natural environment where they have to scavenge for food or hide from other predators Having a healthy fish tank is easy. All it needs is water change once or twice a month. Fishes are happier and stay healthy that way. If the water conditions are good, nothing more is needed.
