When you take stuff from one writer, it's plagiarism; but when you take it from many writers, it's research.

Causes and Solutions of Frequent Marine museum Fish Deaths

by: John Morris
Marine museum tank fish death is one of the common challenges featured by aquarists. There are number of factors that could be responsible for the deaths experienced. These are distinct in brief below:

- The aquarist selection of fish.
- The removal and packing of the fish from the pet shop
- Transport time and period and the handling of the fish in transit
- Quarantine procedure.
- Adjustment and adaptation into the new community or environment by the new fish.

When purchase fish from the pet shop always spend several time at the place to inquire simply about the life history and habits of the new purchase. You can then do a selection from collection of the same species. Ne'er buy the last specimen in reserve at any shop because if it had been a nice specimen, you would-be not have met it there in the 1st instance.

Always form the habit of fashioning your fish purchase during the cool periods of the day, rather before 12 high noon or after 4.30pm.

These are the only periods I can guarantee for fish comfort. This restriction is borne out of my observation that most pet shops and aquarists alike do not seem to care simply about insulation of the fish against temperature fluctuations after gassing them in a polythene.

When fashioning your fish selection from the pet shop be sure the attendant has the skillfulness to pick fish out from a selection. This you can cognize through the fastness with which your select fish is removed out of the selection.

Reject a fish that has been hunted person around, breathless for breath... It is week already! Chances are that it gives up with the further stress that accompanies the transportation of the fish.

Make sure that your new purchase is quarantined. That's a single factor that affects fish survival as pets.

Another thing to watch out for in a fresh installed tank is the quantity of food: really little of this should be given during the hand three weeks. Mind you! I am not suggesting that you should not give them food at all, because without food, no microorganism flora forms. The food supply to the microorganism should be accumulated only really gradually.

Fish keepers with old functional aquariums should avoid general clean up that is washing of sand/gravel, clean up of tank wall and complete water changes so as not to disturb the microorganism flora.

When you have to service, it should simply be the removal of the mulm and dead leaves ample to ensure adequate flow through the filter and no more. The bad habit of commutation the entire filter material or the bedraggled part with fresh materials is harmful to fish life. Most microorganism live in the sludge at the bottom of the tank, so don't throw them away.

Many pet shops that operate a house-to-house maintenance routine on aquariums are used to the habit of complete overhaul which invariably lead to fish death. I have met many a folk who have said, "I used to service my tank myself. On close scrutiny I discovered that he indulge in the unpardonable habit of washing the marine museum with detergents!

In real life situation, no one can attest to having fully fledged a complete overhaul of a watercourse bed. The only thing that happens during heavy rains or flood is the partial/complete change of the water body. The bed, sand and gravel components get clean but not overhauled.

This is nature's know-how of 'servicing' the fish's natural environment. So why don't we all adopt nature's method. Professional aquatic pet dealer’s service aquariums in the same way, and to the committed aquarist, I wish proposal you to do this yourself!
