Tropical fish are actually very easy to care for, if you know how. Yes, they do require a certain environment and some know-how when it comes to their tank, their food, their environment, and their health, but really, what pet can you keep without having a basic knowledge of the best way to care for him or her? Even a house cat or gerbil requires some basic understanding of their diet, toilet habits, and so on. So what about tropical fish? Are they that difficult to care for and to keep? And if not, why do they have the reputation of being so finicky and delicate? What you will learn from this book: - The basics of tropical fish - Purchasing your tank and accessories - Common problems with your fish - Taking care of your fish - Taking care of your tank - And much more!
