Assuming the dirty fish tank has had fish and water in it, without doing various specialised water tests it is impossible to tell what is in it.
Every fish will make your tank dirty because every fish puts out waste.
that depends on the size of your tank ....my tank is not very huge and has 9 fishes in them plus a filter so it takes about a month and a half to get dirty.my tank is only about 20 inches long and 10 inches wide.
when the water starts to get dirty if it is a bit dirty then leave it when it starts to get really dirty clean the filter and your fish tank
A basic rule is never to buy a fish from a tank that is suspect or dirty. Buying from a tank with dead fish in is a definite no no. I would not even consider buying anything from a pet shop if they had dead fish in aquariums on display.
your fish have a funus growing on them that will kill them go to aquarium and buy white spot and fungas medication. remove fish from DIRTY tank. clean tank. medicate the water. if fish are sharing tank with other fish keep them separate and medicate till whits spot is gone this fungus will contract to all other fish if let go is mostly brought to tank by introducing plants or other fish that have already been contaminated.also by a DIRTY tank
No They are really a helpful fish in you tank most of the time they eat any grow algae growing your fish tank they add wonderful color into your tank and they are very active and have hundreds of live babies
Fish eat fish food from your local pet store or you can also feed some of them pellets for fishing but they make your tank dirty faster! Hope it helped!
Either fish you get you'll only want approximately 3 fish. 1) because these fish are considering schooling fish and they are very unhappy with less than three. 2) More than 3-4 fish will crowd your fish tank- this will cause nitrate/nitrite problems and your tank will be dirty all the time.
Foam on the surface of a fish tank can be caused by protein buildup from excess fish food, waste, or decaying plant matter. It may also be due to inadequate surface agitation, leading to poor oxygen exchange. Regular water changes and proper filtration can help alleviate this issue.
Give your fish enough space to swim around in. I think of it as, the more fish you have, the bigger the tank should be. Don't have so many fish in a smaller tank. Make sure to feed your fish everyday. This is obviously essential because if you don't, they will die, and that will for sure not make your fish's life better. Make sure that you clean your tank whenever you sense that it is getting dirty. Clearer water makes your tank look a lot better, and it also helps the fish see and breathe easier. No body likes a dirty tank! It is also good to have a filter in your water, because it circulates the water, and makes it easier for the fish to breathe. Filters do make a difference, because I've had my fish for about seven years now, and It survived this long because of my filter. Hope it helped!
By icky, I am guessing you mean algae? Well for one, this will be paradise for Algae Eaters but the other fish might feel a little dirty or sick. Clean your tank and while doing, use an algae scrubber and scrub down the sides of the tank where the algae is present.Hint: Scrub on the inside of the tank, where the water is.
No fish are supposed to go in a fish tank, not even gold fish, there's no oxygen for them to breathe, and its too small, which gets dirty really fast, so evidently, buy at least a 1 gallon tank with a filter, so you'll clean it less, fish can live longer, and there will be plenty of room to swim in.
