FISH DAY

A year ago today, we welcomed our aquarium pets into our home, meet Loulou and All Black our goldfish. They have grown so much since last year and looking healthy and happy.

AQUARIUM

It's a 30-gallon natural planted tank without electrical pumps or filter. 

Important: Never keep goldfish in a bowl. They need a big tank and enough room to swim around in order for them to grow properly.

MAINTENANCE

We vacuum the substrate and change water (aged water) two to four times a month. 

FOOD

We feed them with pellets, flakes, veggies (boiled peas or spinach), or live food such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. We give them different kinds of food to avoid digestion problems.

We feed them once a day and they have a "diet day" (no feeding day) once a week. 

We remove any uneaten food after feeding session to keep ammonia level under control. Uneaten food (as well as fish waste) produces ammonia  which is highly toxic to fish.

HEALTH CHECK

We constalty check their body (for ammonia burns), observe their mood, and we make sure that the quality of the water is always good.
