postheadericon Feeding the fish

feeding fishWhen we decided to have fish, we investigate very well on their nutritional needs is a key. Not all species have the same requirements either in quality or quantity. It is very important to be clear what we must do to have a healthy fish aquarium.

In general it is ideal to feed the fish three times a day. If we go on vacation in the market sell devices that release the expected amount of food from time to time schedule.

If when you put the food after three minutes free food remains in the water, the amount is greater than necessary. If within that time consuming, may need a little more. But if food is floating, it ruins the quality of water and can kill fish.

If you were to do this with the heater must be taken into account a couple of important points: the plants must be plastic plants (which can withstand the issues of the turtles) and species that may never be recognized by our turtles as food. Him that I think is obvious.

Liquid water treatment.
Although not essential a liquid that addresses the “impurities” in water and become suitable for our turtle is never over. It is an expensive element (of around 3-4 euros) and is used in small quantities.
