I can not believe that a goldfish belongs to the genus Karas. This is how bright the creature is, that even those who do not have an aquarium house love it. Specialists in feng shui recommend to start these fish, as a symbol of abundance and well-being. And no wonder, because her distant relatives are from China.
Fish is not particularly demanding on the content, if you adhere to some rules for caring for it.
How to keep a goldfish in an aquarium?
Goldfish like space. If we talk about the fact that the goldfish lives in a small aquarium, this means that the volume of the aquarium for goldfish on one pretty creature is not less than 50 liters.
For trouble-free maintenance of fish, you need to purchase filters (external and internal) and a siphon, since lovers to swarm in the ground by their occupation greatly pollute the water. If you add the excrement of the fish themselves, you can imagine what will be the water without filtration.
We all know that the fraction of soil 3-5 mm is considered optimal. For gold fish it is recommended to reduce or increase, avoiding the acquisition of pebbles with sharp edges. This must be done in order to avoid unpleasant moments such as a fish injured, or a stone stuck in her mouth.
Optimal temperature of goldfish, as well as most other 22 - 25 ° C. Too warm water in the aquarium contributes to their rapid aging. And, of course, do not forget about enough oxygen, to the lack of which fish are so sensitive. The goldfish will be delighted with the planted plants, as they will not only decorate the aquarium, but will also improve the conditions of its maintenance. The only requirement for them is hard leaves, otherwise the design of the reservoir will be hopelessly spoiled.
Unfortunately, our pets sometimes get sick. The most common diseases in the aquarium, which can cause a goldfish: scabies, dermatomycoses, fish pox, dropsy and overfeeding, problems with the gastrointestinal tract.
If you do not overfeed, do not overpopulate and maintain the purity of the aquarium, the content of the pet, which is a goldfish, will be just a joy.
