Introducing a Fish

Introducing a Fish

There are a specific way to introduce a fish to your fish tank otherwise your fish may be attacked by diseases, or may if your fish is too sensitive it can die. So i am giving you a safe way to introduce your new friend.
  • Fish put the plastic bag containing your fish in your aquarium, and put let it float over the surface for 15-20 minutes.
  • You will get some time to rearrange the decoration of your tank to break the territory of the old fishes so that they struggle less to find their territory together. You can ignore this step if your fishes are hardy. 
  • After that when the temperature is stabilized, open the plastic bag, take a scope of water from your tank, put it in the plastic bag, then again seal it, and again let it float in the water for 15-20 minutes. Do not mix the water of the new fishes to your aquarium, because it may contain diseases to harm your fish, so if the water of the plastic bag overflow, do it over a basin.
  • After that 40 minutes your fish will be ready to go into your aquarium. So open the plastic bag, catch your fish by a net, let the water flow into your basin, then place them gently into your aquarium, if you don't want to harm them do this one by one.
Now, sit back and relax, to see your new fishes find their destinies in your aquarium.
These steps will prevent your aquarium to get prone to diseases, reduce the medication cost
