Cleaning Your Fish Tank
One of the nicest additions to any home is a fish tank. A fish
tank creates a colourful, relaxing ambience and they come in a
huge range of sizes to suit virtually any setting. However, fish
tanks do require work, and without proper care, algae build ups
and murky water can change your tank aesthetically and cause
unpleasant odours. Cleaning your fish tank not only helps with

fish, as no person or pet can live in an unhealthy environment.
There are a few basic precautions that should be followed to
keep your fish tank clean and to dramatically reduce algae build
ups. The goal is to avoid algae build up in the first place, as
this is easier than removing algae later. The first step is to

or algae eater constantly eats algae off rocks and the glass.
While the Plecostomus are not always the prettiest fish, their
benefits far outweigh their looks. The last precaution you can
take

is to NOT place your fish tank in direct sunlight, algae
thrives on sunlight and will grow rapidly given the chance.
Every couple of months you should replace the water in your tank
to ensure cleanliness. After the water is removed you have to
remove all of the rocks, artificial plants and decorations (such

Use diluted bleach to clean these

objects as all traces can be
removed. Avoid using soap, as traces of the soap can be left on
the objects and may harm your fish. To clean the glass in the
tank only use proper fish tank glass cleaner which you can
purchase from any pet store, as conventional glass cleaner
contains substances lethal to fish. Even when you have to clean
surfaces outside of the tank such as the hood, you should still
avoid the use of

any harsh chemical cleaner, as traces can leach
there way back into the water.
That is all you need for a clean and healthy home for your fish.
If ongoing problems occur, make sure you consult your local pet
store.
