Don’t be a part of the problem by keeping your fish in an aquarium designed for tropical fish. If our fish are to thrive in captivity we must make some compromises with their set up. These fish we’ve been keeping in bowls came from the icy cold rivers in China. They may look fancy on the outside, however, on the inside, they’re still goldfish
Having no core body temperature, these cold blooded fish need cold water rich in minerals and oxygen
People buy goldfish because they have been led to believe they are cheap to keep. Clean the fish water when it looks dirty and feed the fish; simple. Goldfish are simple, however, the ecosystem you will need to create for them is complex. Goldfish make waste, and lots of it. Waste produces a dangerous toxin; ammonia. When ammonia is present beneficial bacteria form to feed on it, converting it into nitrites, another dangerous toxin. When nitrites are present, another type of friendly bug forms to feed on it. These micro-organisms convert nitrites into nitrates. Nitrates are the final toxin to be converted in what we call the nitrogen cycle
Nitrate is a safe toxin in low amounts
Fish keepers refer to nitrates as the end result of the nitrogen cycle, however, this isn’t true. Algae forms to feed on nitrates when present, keeping levels safe for our fish. This plant is a nutritious and delicious food source, representing the end and the beginning of the nitrogen cycle. If it weren’t for the nitrogen cycle, there would be no life in our natural waterways
