the water is suddely geting really foggy. Do I need to change it? How often should I? Is there anything I can do to help prevent it from getting really foggy?

Answers:

The fog is a bloom of bacteria that in your case, is growing because you are probably over feeding your fish. You should be changing 25% of your tank's water every week using aged tap water. A gravel siphon is a really good idea as it remove large bits of waste that your filter has not pulled in.

there are tablets u can get in the fish area @ the pet store, it will keep the water cleaner longer, but just change it whenevr it gets murky or there is too much poo.

Depends on number of fish in the tank. Usually third day. Air Bubbling in the tank will keep it fresh.

---

About three weeks, depends on your water situation. Try using water treatment. Use tapped water might lessen the water to be foggy.

---

Every other day if you do not have a filter. Always have the next water getting to room temperatre. Usually feeding too much is what clouds the water.

Type "fish" + the kind you have, into your search and learn about your pet.

the fogginess may be from too much food given to the fish. only give small quantities as much as they will eat every other day. and you should clean the fish tank every two to three weeks.

depends on how big it is.ten gallon tanks, you can change like just half of it..helps
