Care
Good husbandry practices will help you take the very best care of your fish.
This means providing a healthy diet, and a clean and clear habitat that is the right size for the number of fish you have.
Fish require a specific habitat, without chlorine in their water, and an underwater heat source.
Diet
Fish may eat a wide variety of food items in the wild, foraging on the bottom of lakes/ponds.
As pets, they usually get a pelleted or flake diet, and with the premium diets manufactured by Kaytee, all of their nutritional needs are met.

Fish do not require dietary supplements along with their Kaytee diet, although you can supplement them with Tubifex worms, mosquito larva, brineshrimp, and vegetation.
Health
It's very important to keep your fish healthy, and the best way to do that is with a healthy diet and clean and clear water.
A clean habitat at the correct temperature is very important for the health of your fish.
Check different references, because there are a number of diseases that fish get.
Do your homework before you purchase a fish.
