Water Quality: Regular water changes and proper filtration are crucial. Aim for at least 20-30% water changes every 2 weeks to maintain pristine water conditions.
Monitoring Health: Keep an eye on their behavior and appearance. Any signs of lethargy, loss of color, or unusual behavior may indicate health issues. Consult with a veterinarian specializing in fish if needed.
