Figuring out the finest aquarium fish to keep

Ornamental fish can be great and interesting for most people who love to keep fish at home. Although there is no aquarium fish is maintenance free, but at least there are some fish that are easier to maintain than other fish. 

The best and easiest aquarium fish that you can care for your aquarium are those that are more heavily in health and more forgiving of any errors, like freshwater fish. These fish are right for beginners, who tend to make more errors in the maintenance of fish. The freshwater fish is Betta, the widespread goldfish and plecostomus. 

Betta

The Betta who is also known as Siamese fighting fish is probably one of the easiest aquarium fish to care as well as being one of the most attractive fish. He has a robust physical constitution and has been popular to live in small bowls with success, in contrast to other fish. He also emit less waste than goldfish. 

Nevertheless, the betta is an aggressive guy and often fights with other fish. He will kill another male Betta as he was pure fighting fish fighting. Female Bettas are more social with other tropical fish. They are killing in color and have much shorter fins than their male counterparts better. They can eat the same foods as other tropical fish with a nervous desirability of blood worms. 

Common Goldfish

Many hobbyists that the ordinary goldfish and its close relation, the Comet Goldfish is the easiest aquarium fish to keep. These goldfish are much more social than Betta and have brilliant colors. They do not require individual diet and can tolerate almost any ornament you want to plop in aquariums. 

But not all goldfish are easy to fit. You must identify the egg-shaped goldfish that have bubble eyes, swim slowly, no top fin or long fins, are not considered easy to care. They will not stay in the same aquarium with widespread or comet goldfish. It is because they swim so fast that the fan-tailed, or egg-shaped goldfish will never be able to get their fair share of food. 

The Plecostomus 

The name "plecostomus" refers to a family of ornamental fish, which has hundreds of varieties. Some of the plecostomus is harder to deal with than others. They are bottom feeders like catfish or Chinese Algae Eaters and require their own types of food. 
But any plecostumus you see in your local pet stores, among other tropical fish will be easy to keep. 

The plecostomus is something strong and tough, if you compare them with other types of aquarium fish. You must be careful because they are fast to grow up in the aquarium they live in. It is commonly occurring unpredictably and there is still no reason that can explain this phenomenon. 

To keep your beautiful fish alive and have their fun place to live, you should be aware of their food and their habitats. You can have a book or search the Web to find what is best for your fish. This is to keep your aquatic hobby.
