WHEN TO FEED YOUR FISH AFTER PURCHASE


FEEDING THE FISH

HOWEVER carefully you add the fish to your tank they will look unhappy for a while.

Turn the lights out,and leave them overnight to get used to their new home.  A feed with fish flakes the next day will make the fish feel at home.    
               
           If you already have an established tank, it is advisable to QUARANTINE  new fish before adding them to an existing populated tank, and the cheapest way to do this is to purchase a simple plastic tank which will need no gravel or plants.
            This can be used solely for quarantine and as an 'HOSPITAL TANK'.

             Leave the fish in this tank for about three days during which any disease harbored by the fish would be evident for which it can be treated using available chemicals from your dealer. The fish can then be introduced into the tank in the same way as before.

            When you add new fish to an established community, there will probably be a certain amount of harassment of the new arrivals by the original fish. 
              Try to divert their attention by giving them a good feed when the fish are introduced.
