With my 15 years of experience in fish keeping, I have prepared a basic guide to know, understand, and maintain fish health in your tanks at home and offices for many years.

Aquarium fish are generally pond, lake, and small river stream fish, i.e., freshwater breeds. They are more prone to daily sunlight, quiet nights, and slow-moving water.

When these fish are kept in aquariums, they are usually devoid of effective sunlight and open air. Hence, their life expectancy reduces by 30 to 40 percent in an enclosed environment. Also, in fish tanks, we use fluorescent and LED lights, which, if they are switched on for longer hours every day, create algae faster in the fish tank. This makes it susceptible to various infections.

I am offering a simple, basic guide to keep your fish healthy and easy to maintain, irrespective of the size of your tank and the number of fish in it.
