Planning and maintaining an aquarium requires proper knowledge about fish keeping, fish
tanks, and essential supplies for fish maintenance. An aquarium at home enhances the
beauty of your room and house. Although there are many fish keeping theories, gaining
knowledge through books and the Internet can help you plan and set up a freshwater
aquarium.
Basic Steps
Before planning to start with a fish aquarium at home, you need to decide on type of fish you
want to keep, freshwater or saltwater. Maintaining freshwater fish in your aquarium can
prove easier.
Basic essentials include:
• Aquarium Tank
• Aquarium Stand
• Filter
• Aquarium hood or canopy
• Gravel
• Proper lighting arrangements
• Thermometer
• Heater
• Nets and cleaning equipment
• Decorations, although a vanity item
Size of Aquarium Tank
An aquarium tank should be large enough to contain a minimum of thirty gallons of water.
Small tanks do not prove beneficial as small changes in water chemistry can cause
substantial effects on fish. Water chemistry changes do not affect the water of large tanks as
easily. Different fish grow to different sizes. Your aquarium tank should be able to support all
growing fish. Lack of sufficient space could cause bigger fish to eat smaller ones.
Location of Aquarium Tank:
Keep your aquarium in such a position that allows perfect viewing of fish from all parts of the
room. Place your aquarium away from direct sunlight, cold winds, air-conditioners, heaters, or
loud and vibrating objects. These could cause wide changes in water temperature levels and
prove detrimental to the health of the fish in the aquarium. Keeping an aquarium close to a
water supply can make it easy for changing water and similar maintenance work.
Shape and Material of Your Aquarium Tank
Aquarium tanks are available in different shapes and are of many different materials.
Rectangular glass tanks are cheapest. You can choose from hexagonal, bow-front, or corner
aquariums. Acrylic aquariums prove more ornamental than glass aquariums. These tanks
prove more difficult to clean and maintain than glass aquariums, as they scratch easily and
require greater support. Initially, purchasing a less deep glass aquarium is best as it
supports easy cleaning and handling.
Aquarium Stand
Use a specially made aquarium stand, as it can hold an aquarium well in place. Aquariums are
considerably heavy and using improper stands can prove dangerous and cause unnecessary
mess all around. Your aquarium stand should be stable and sturdy, well capable of holding
the weight of your aquarium. Normally, aquarium shops sell tanks and stands together as a
kit. These offer necessary support in proportion to the weight of the tank.
Filter
Aquarium filters could be a power filter, canister filter, or under-gravel filter. Aquarium
filtration could be mechanical, chemical, and biological, although all three are essential. A
power filter is easily accessible as it is behind the tank. A canister filter is normally
underneath the tank and therefore remains hidden except for hoses. An under-gravel filter
provides only mechanical filtration and therefore proves insufficient to maintain the
cleanliness of your aquarium.
Aquarium Lighting
Lighting in your aquarium adds to the ecological quotient, especially so if your aquarium has
many live plants. Lighting should be appropriate. Excessive lighting could accelerate algae
growth. This increases maintenance work and proves to be an unattractive sight within your
aquarium. Further, your lighting should not generate too much heat, as it could cause serious
changes in water temperatures. Lighting in aquariums could be through fluorescent or
incandescent. Most prefer fluorescent lighting, as it does not generate much heat, is more
affordable, and can emit different spectrums of light.
Aquarium Heater
This heater prevents fluctuations in water temperatures. Maintaining an aquarium heater can
ensure steady water temperature that is most suitable for fish in your aquarium.
Species Compatibility
Fish in your aquarium need to live in harmony. There are specific species that remain
perfectly compatible with one another. Choosing such compatible species can promote
healthy living of fish. Oscars and growing cichlids are aggressive varieties. Allowing them to
grow up together can prove beneficial while housing them. Live-bearers, bristle nose catfish,
and rainbow fish gel well together and do not possess any aggressive nature. Cardinal
tetras yearn for their own kind. If you choose to accommodate them, it is necessary to have
quite a number of them together.
