make sure its deep enough though

You can... but you shouldn't need to often.

you should never empty all the water from your tank, only up to 30% a week. changing all the water gets rid of the much needed bacteria need for breaking down waste. Google aquarium cycling or the nitro cycle for more information. tom :)

How can I change the water in a fish bowl properly?

To change the water in a fish bowl properly, follow these steps: Use a clean container to hold the fish while you clean the bowl. Remove about 25-50 of the water from the bowl. Gently scoop out any debris or uneaten food from the bottom. Use a water conditioner to treat the new water before adding it to the bowl. Slowly add the treated water back into the bowl to avoid stressing the fish. Return the fish to the bowl once the water temperature has equalized. Repeat this process regularly to maintain a healthy environment for your fish.


How do you clean a circular fish bowl?

This is for betta fish but you can use it for other fish too but why would you keep a fish in a bowl tha's not a betta? Betta are the only fish that can stay in a bowl: When you first get the fish clean out the bowl (make sure there's no dust or anything). How to clean the bowl the first time: At the first time you need completely new water for the fish. Wipe the bowl and make sure it doesn't have dust, residue, or anything dirty make it super clean and shiny. You'll need to put warmish water into the bowl and add water cleaner so it doesn't harm the fish. You can buy water cleaner from your local pet store (the one you got the fish from). And your bowl is ready to go. Second time cleaning the bowl: Make sure you have a container to put your fish in when you clean the water. It has to be big enough so your fish can swim in it. Now you take just a little bit of the old water and keep it for the bowl after. Okay, now you take the fish out with a net and put it in a container with water in it. Now you take out the extra water in the bowl that has poop in it and stuff and put it down the sink or something. Then you clean the bowl if you have to and add water wih water cleaner into the bowl. Also leave some room for the old water from the bowl before it was cleaned so the betta doesn't get shocked or anything from the water change. Then, add water cleaner to the bowl again. Now take your fish out of the container with the net and put your fish back to where he was. That's about it. And also after a few weeks change ALL of the water and keep it warmish. If you change the water temperature to cold right away he'll go into shock for the change of temperature! hope I helped :)
