Frequently Asked Questions about Fish Tanks & Aquariums

Q: Do fish tanks need lids?

A: While fish tanks technically don't require lids, having one can offer several advantages. Lids can minimize evaporation, prevent fish from jumping out, and shield them from potential hazards such as debris, falling objects, or curious pets. Additionally, a lid can help contain any unpleasant odors emanating from the tank, leaving the room smelling fresher. To ensure the safety of your fish and your household, it's crucial to select a lid that perfectly fits the size of your tank.

Q: Should fish tanks be in sunlight?

A: It's best to avoid placing fish tanks in direct sunlight, as this can lead to excessive heating of the tank and undesirable algae growth. Fish don't require a lot of natural light, and aquarium lighting can provide sufficient illumination for them. When positioning your tank, choose a calm spot that is shielded from drafts and direct sunlight.

Q: Can a fish aquarium be too big?

A: In most cases, a fish tank cannot be too large for your fish. However, there are factors such as space availability, weight, and maintenance requirements that may dictate an ideal maximum size. It's advisable to select the biggest aquarium that fits within your space and maintenance restrictions, and ensure that the stand and floor can support the weight of the water-filled tank. Larger aquariums generally provide a more comfortable living environment for fish, and you can enhance their well-being by adding caves, plants, and other hiding spots. It's essential to be cautious when selecting the depth of your tank, as some fish (like bettas) may require a shallower tank to easily swim to the surface.

Q: Should aquarium tanks be filled to the top?

A: It's not recommended to fill fish tanks all the way to the top. Overfilling can result in splashes or sprays that may harm nearby objects and flooring. Additionally, without a lid, it could be easier for jumping fish to escape the tank. It's advisable to maintain a water level of about an inch and a half to two inches below the top of the tank, or up to the top trim line if your aquarium is equipped with one.

Q: How long do you have to wait to put fish in an aquarium?

A: The answer to this question hinges on whether you're introducing fish to a new or established tank. If the tank is new, it's crucial to add only one fish initially to initiate the cycling process. The tank must be completely cycled before any new fish are introduced, which may require several weeks. On the other hand, if you're adding fish to an existing tank, it's important to ensure they acclimate properly before being placed in their new home.

Q: How do you cycle a fish tank?

A: If you're using fishless cycling, it's necessary to initiate the cycle before your fish arrive so that the tank is prepared for their arrival. Since there are no fish in the tank, you'll need to add ammonia to simulate the waste they'll generate. In contrast, fish-in cycling should begin with only a few fish. Initially, they should be fed lightly and then gradually fed more over the following four to six weeks.

Q: How many fish can I put in my tank?

A: The standard guideline for determining how many fish can safely inhabit a tank is to allow for one inch of fish per gallon of water. For instance, a five-gallon tank can accommodate up to five inches of fish, while a ten-gallon tank can support up to ten inches of fish, and so on.

Q: How do you clean a fish tank?

A: To maintain your pet's tank in a neat and tidy condition, it's recommended that you clean it once a month. Even the most hygienic tanks accumulate some amount of algae and debris on the sides, filters, tubing, and accessories. Avoid using chemical cleaners and instead dismantle the filters and lift tubes to clear any blockages. You can easily clean your tank using stiff brushes. Magnetic cleaning blades or scrub brushes with long handles can also be useful in removing algae from the sides of the tank.
