It depends on if you are keeping cold water, fresh water, or marine fish. All of them require water changes, filtration, proper temperatures, and monitoring. Each week you should test your water for at least pH, hardness (kH/Gh), ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites. These are simple tests that only take a few moments to perform. Even shorter if you acquire quick dip test strips instead of the liquid test kits. Daily feeding is required, some species once a day, some twice a day, depending on what they are. If you are using a commercial diet (flake, pellet, etc), make sure that your fish do not take longer than 2 minutes to consume it. Anymore can cause overfeeding, which contributes to ammonia spikes, that can kill your fish. Depending on the size of your aquarium, you will need to perform a 10 to 20% water change on either a weekly or bi-weekly basis. The smaller the tank, the more often you will need to change the water. I recommend getting a gravel vacuum so that you can clean the detrius out of the gravel at the same time you are syphoning out your water. Saltwater tanks and planted tanks require more work than this, so do your research.
