Fish are the third most popular pets in the United States, behind dogs and cats. While fish are often relatively easy pets to care for, ensuring their long-term health and happiness means giving them a good home—and more importantly, a good fish tank. This hobby can be expensive, though, so it’s important to understand the requirements of the fish you’re interested in before buying a bunch of equipment.
From smaller freshwater fish to larger tropical fish, there are tanks for every type of fish and fish environment. An aquarium is a container with at least one transparent area made of glass or acrylic.
