1Just like any other pet, you should never get a fish unless you’re willing to spend time looking after him. You will need to clean his tank regularly, feed him and make sure he’s healthy.2Before you get a fish, you’ll need a tank. The bigger the tank, the more fish you can have, but the harder it is to clean. You’ll need one that filters the water, so make sure Mom or Dad asks what is needed at the pet store.3Some fish don’t mind living alone, while others prefer to swim in groups called schools. Make sure you find out before you decide which type to get.4Remember, not all fish get along – some types go better together than others. If you want to mix fish breeds, make sure they can live together first. 5Make sure you don’t overfeed your new pet. Ask an adult how much and how often you should feed your fish and stick to that or else he may become ill.You can get pretty accessories for your tank, like plants, castles and shipwrecksThe molly fish is a good first petSome fish like to swim in schools and others don't5COOL THINGS ABOUT KEEPING FISH AS PETSThey are beautiful and can be great first pets.
