Fish tanks are a wonderful centerpiece to a room. Fish and other aquatic animals are fascinating to watch, and you can customize your water world with plants and decorations that match your style. However, regular maintenance is a must, as fish and other aquatic pets are extremely sensitive to pH adjustments and dirty water. A functional, healthy fish tank requires working filtration, temperature control, and water conditioners to provide the optimal setting for your fish. If you're looking for assistance enhancing your fish tank in the Califon, NJ area, come down to Pets Pets Pets and let us show you everything you need to maintain your water clean.

Fish are sensitive animals to both temperature and contamination, and so, it's very important that you are consistently cleaning and preserving their environment. Here are some  important tools that you need to be using to help you optimize your aquarium.

Water filtration system: These bubbling tubes pull water up and through a fine filter, eliminating damaging particles that can make your fish ill and cloud the water. Every aquarium should have a filter that is appropriate for its size.

Water conditioner: Conditioner helps protect against stress-related diseases that take place when the pH or temperature of the water is not optimal for fish. While these also help for aquariums full of chlorinated tap water, you should always leave tap water out over night before adding it to your aquarium. This offers the chlorine time to evaporate out of the water and will make it healthier for your aquarium.

Aquatic plants: Including plants to your fish tank gives your fish a much less stressful environment as it more closely resembles their natural environment and provides places to hide. Additionally, plants help lower the carbon in the water, which in turn helps maintain the acidity balanced. Simply ensure you're getting tablets or drops to help keep your plants healthy as well - aquatic plant care is crucial to keeping a flourishing aquarium.

Mineral treatments and pH balancers: Keeping the minerality and acidity of your aquarium perfectly balanced for your fish is important to their survival. Mineral treatments and pH balancers will guarantee your fish has a healthy environment to live in. In addition, if you have a brackish or saltwater tank, you'll need to ensure the salinity is optimized as well, and a pet store can help with that.

Keeping your fish tank's water conditioned, pH well balanced, and clean will ensure a long and healthy life for your fish. We have the expertise here at Pets Pets Pets, so give us a call at (908) 975-2262 or drop in and see us today.
