The Importance of Water Quality in Fishkeeping
When it comes to fishkeeping, whether it's a small home aquarium or a large custom tank, water quality isn't just important; it's everything.
Think of your fish tank as its own tiny ecosystem. In such a closed environment, even small imbalances can quickly lead to big problems. At PureAquatics, we've seen it all, from cloudy tanks to stressed-out fish, and often the root cause is the same: poor water quality. But why exactly is it such a critical issue:
Why Water Quality Matters
How Do I Maintain Good Water Quality in My Fish Tank?
Keeping your aquarium clean and your fish healthy starts with good habits:
✓ Check and clean your filter regularly.
✓ Rinse filter media in tank water (not tap) and replace when needed.
✓ Do regular water changes to remove toxins.
✓ Avoid overfeeding your fish.
✓ Regularly test your water for ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, pH, and hardness.
