13. My Aquaria
My favorite thing is aquaria, places in which aquatic plants
and animals, particularly fish, are kept. The term in applied to
single tanks for home use in which fish are kept for their
decorative effect and interesting habits and for public
institutions to conduct an exhibition and a scientific study of
aquatic life.
I make home aquaria to simulate a natural environment.
Aquatic plants supply the oxygen needed by fish, but often an
aerating device is used to furnish additional oxygen. Goldfish
enjoy cool water, but the popular tropical fish must have water
at a constant temperature of 22oC (72oF) or more. I must keep
the water pure and free of algae for long periods by sufficient
aeration and by keeping mollusks in the aquaria. A layer of
sand or gravel at the bottom of the tank will hold the roots of
such important aquatic plants as tape grass and vallisneria
spiralis and aid in the removal of debris. My home aquaria
range in size from small fishbowls, holding two or three fish, to
huge tanks.
