Aquarium Fish Deaths – Some causes and remedies
You have created your aquarium, adding some fish and hope to enjoy your new hobby. everything looks good to after, slowly, as water becomes turbid, or the start dying fish or algae overtaking the tank. What have you done wrong? More importantly what can be done to make the tank safe needle fish seen in all photos?
The first thing to do is not panic and run to the store nearest pet and buy a bunch of chemical treatments and dump them into the tank! This, in all likelihood, only make things worse. Another thing people new to the hobby tend to do is clean the tank completely and start again. This is again wrong to do what any type of bacteria that have been successfully grow in the tank will be removed and will have to start all over again. You need to understand some basic facts about his love first and then apply some sensitive methods to cure the problems.
We have compiled some of the common causes of death in aquarium fish and other problems with our recommended cures.
Build Up Toxic Chemicals
Fish can die from a number of causes but the most common is the toxic accumulation of ammonia, nitrites and nitrates less frequently. Ammonia is a waste product of fish and if left in the tank will cause damage to the fish. The bacteria in the tank to turn the ammonia into nitrites, which are also toxic, but then much less toxic nitrates. The bacteria are encouraged to grow when the new tank cycle. You made a deposit cycle properly? If you added too many fish before the tank was cycling which will inevitably lead to the accumulation of these chemicals and that could easily be the reason why fish are dying.
Bullying Fish
Some types of fish are peaceful when young become aggressors, but that may dog fish to death. Tiger barbs are known to be the aggressors. Did you realize that they are always kept in a tank separately in the pet store? The only way to stop harassment is to remove the offending fish, give them away or give them their own aquarium!
Uncommon water changes
Partial water changes are necessary to eliminate the accumulation of nitrates. Although nitrates are much less toxic to fish or nitrite levels Ammonia can build up over time until a toxic level is reached. Water changes are the only way ro remove nitrates from your aquarium.
Addendum water contaminated with chlorine or chloramines
Tap water is treated with either chlorine or chlorine and chloramines. Chlorine is easily removed by allowing water at rest for a day or two, but not chloramines can be removed this way. If the local water authority uses chloramine you must buy a chemical water treatment to remove it before adding water to your tank.
Overfeeding
A major cause of problems, especially for beginners fish keepers. Food left over stays in the bottom of the tank and begins to decompose produce chemicals toxic to fish, this is especially likely to occur in a small aquarium. Overfeeding can also lead to death as the fish, the absence of a mechanism to tell you that when full, can eat up inflammation of the stomach that causes death.
Remedies
If the test is possible that the water for nitrites and ammonia. These levels must always be zero. Failure to perform a partial water change of around 20%. A good rule is to make a change of 10% water change water weekly and 30% per month. if the problems are due to an accumulation of toxic chemicals that should improve the situation dramatically.
Never add more food in the tank that the fish can eat in three minutes. If you suspect that overfeeding use a siphon to clean the sand and do a partial water change as above.
If overcrowding is a problem of giving some of the fish or give them a new home aquarium.

Do not feed, and if you can only dip to 1 / 2 water 1 time a week. Do not throw the entire jar. "Beta" do well in a small jar, but place a mirror behind her. This makes them more active and makes them think that having one in the area. That gives interest and exercise. Beta Total food or feed Wardley Freeze Dried Tubifex and Blood worms.
