One fish in a 10 gal. tank wont required much maintenance at all! Just keep an eye on any algae build up on the walls, and dont over-feed. For one fish the filter will do the work. Enjoy your fish!

I have 2 goldfish and I had one for 4yrs and one for 1 1/2 yrs. You have to clean off the ammonia from the sides of the fish tank and the filter. ammonia is the black stuff and to much of it will kill your goldfish.I usally refill the tank once a week right to were the water comes out of the filter. and stir up the rocks once in a while or else you'll have a lot a crap down there.

I have a 25 gallon tank and I clean it once a week. But then again I have 3 goldfish and a self cleaner in my tank. I'd imagaine about once a week would do. You just have to monitor the tank and see if the tank is getting dirty. Oh and goldfish make a lot of waste. . .

Providing that you are careful not to over feed your fish, every other week should be fine. Buy a gravel siphon and use it to remove all the fish poop (and about three gallons of water) and replace the water with water that has been left standing over night (bottled spring water is better).

hey

i have a 10 gallon aquarium too, i have 5 goldfishes,-2 moors and 3 fancy, and i change 80 percent of my water every friday and my fish are comfortable with that.

then drain out the water, and clean your filter, and decorations.

feed annually.

get one of those filters and it should say the capacity with it and when you need to clean the filter. also ask at a pet store or someplace. i guess about once a month but im not positive.

feed fish twice a day. (just a pinch). Do a partial water change (1/3 of tank water) every two weeks. Clean glass inside and out when necessary.
