They are attractive, interesting and Can become a very challenging hobby. One may Spend as nruch time and money as one wants in raising fish. They certainly can be cheaper to maintain than an 80 lb. dog and very few landlords and neighbours complain about a bowl of fish. As with all pets, disease can be a problem with fish as well. In the case of a sick fish, the patient an be put in a plastic bag with water and taken to a veterinary clinic for diagnosis. If management problems are suspected, a hotise call by the veterinarian is probably advisable in order 'that the aquarium be inspected. • Management is usually a 'major factor in raising healthy- fish. The fish environment should be kept constant. The temperature should be between 75-80 degrees F for most tropical fish. Any sudden change in temperature can be fatal. Likewise, constant aeration helps maintain oxygen levels between 8 and 11 ppm. Waste removal may be achieved by charcoal filters, siphoning wastes and changing one tenth of the water on a weekly basis. If you ' change all the-water at once, replace it with conditioned Water, This is water that has been allowed to stand for a few days in order for the chlorine to be dissipated. There should be 1 gallon of water for each cubic inch of fish in the tank. a Often feeding is a definite management problem. More often than not, fish die from overeatine as compared to starvation. Fish should be able to eat all the 'food given to them in about 15 minates, Probably the floating type o‘f, pellet is the best firod 'Or most tropical fiSh in that it'doesn't settle qn the bottom to rot before the fish 'get to it. Live foods may be required fOr some fish. These foodg are generally good !Mt there is always the dahger of introducing a small pathogenic organism to the tanicalong with the live food. Proper management is the best 'way tq prevent disease from affecting your pet fish. Another important-point to remember is quarantining any newly acquired fish for 3 weeks before mixing them with your other fish. If you are having fish die in your tank, post mortems should be performed to determine ihe .cause. Likewise a good owner will observe his fish frequently for any signs of disease such as: a change in colour, bulging eyes, redness at the base of the fins and around the tail, drooping fins, erotic swimming, or a change in position as it swims, ' Many fish diseases are treatable. Treatment may consist Of simply a removal of the cause of the problem or supportive therapy such as an increase in temperature or an improved feeding regime. Sometimes it's necessary to inject the individual fish with medication or to dip the fish in medication for external parasitic or fungal infections. For certain, as the number of pet fish grows, more interest will be taken in preventing- and treating these aquatic companions.
