10
gallon fish tanks are just the right size for the beginner fish collector.
Here is some basic information on these small tanks that any beginner
should know:
• Placement – their basic size and shape make them easy
to use in a bedroom or other small places such as a studio apartment.
• Fish size – to ensure you have enough room in your tank
for your fish population, make sure the tank is at least eighty percent
bigger than the full grown adult fish. These aquariums are not recommended
for larger fish.
• Number of fish – 10 gallon fish tanks, on average, can
hold up to eight very small fish (such as Neon Tetras) or two or three
medium sized fish (Angelfish.)
It is never a bad idea to start out small. Before investing in a
large, 100 gallon tank, consider trying out 10 gallon fish tanks.
Make sure that you are willing to put forth the time and energy necessary
to caring for fish, first.
