How To Set Up A Fish Tank

Once you have brought the fish tank there are a few things you need to think about before buying the fish.

When you choose a place for the tank to go in the house it needs to be away from loud noises such as TV's, radios, washing machines and fridges. Fish get stressed out when exposed to the loud noise.

Before the tank is filled with water, it needs to be wiped clean with a new cloth and warm water.

Now it's time to add some decorations and electrical equipment to the tank. Once you choose what decorations you want to place in the tank, make sure you wash them before putting them in the tank. Also have a mixture of real and artificial plants. A filter is needed to maintain clear and healthy water. A heater is also needed to maintain the right temperature for your fish.

Now you know how to set up a fish tank, you can buy a fish. Fishes are a great first pet and are easy to look after.
