Platies are one of the easiest and most popular of all freshwater fish<\/a>. They come in all shapes, sizes and colors and are known by many names such as the platy, the bulldog, and the zebra danio. This is because they have a very unique coloration on their bodies. They\u2019re black and white with spots of red or yellow all over.<\/p>\nThe best thing about them is that they make excellent fish for an aquarium. Their small size and bright colors make them very easy to care for, and you can find them in a number of sizes and colors.<\/p>\n
One good way to decide how big of a tank you\u2019ll need is by figuring out how much water you\u2019ll need for each fish. If you\u2019re just starting out with your new fish, you should probably only have two fish in the tank at one time. That will help keep the water chemistry balanced and keep you from overfeeding. Once you\u2019re experienced and have more fish, you may want to up the amount of water you use in a tank. However, you shouldn\u2019t overcrowd the tank.<\/p>\n
Some species of fish like to live in a shoal or group together, while others like to keep their own little groups of two or three fish in one tank. This makes it easier to watch the individual fish without crowding them out and makes for a better fish tank.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s important that you take care of your fish properly. They can live a long life if you give them the proper attention, but that means you must give them food on a regular basis, and they also must have clean tanks to live in. If you\u2019re not sure about how to go about it, consider hiring a pet store owner who can help you out with this.<\/p>\n
There are some things to keep in mind when it comes to keeping your fish healthy. One of the best things you can do for your fish is to keep the water clean by vacuuming and filtering it often.<\/p>\n
A filter will help to keep the fish from getting contaminated with chemicals and other impurities that can be harmful to them. They should also have a surface filter, which will remove any food waste that they can ingest.<\/p>\n
