A Fish Out Of Water

Be wary of these common mistakes fish owners make

- Noleen Fouri

Fish can seem pretty easy to keep – some water and food and you’re sorted. This is very far from true! And probably the reason why many pet fish don’t enjoy the kind of lifespan they should. We look at a few common mistakes fish owners make.

Planning is vital

Our daily lives revolve around planning, and even more so when we decide to add an animal to our family – it is after all a living being you are responsible for. No matter how small the animal, it is up to us to make completely sure what we are getting into before we acquire our new pet. Ask as many questions as you can, and do a vast amount of research before deciding on getting fish. Setting up the perfect tank can be expensive, and it can get quite technical! Mistakes can easily slip in – but don’t feel bad, we are all human.

Feeding frenzy!
