For those people who still want to have pets but are scared of the commitment they can choose fish as pets. Fish don' t need walks, bath, or special visits to the vet if they are not well -- all they need is a small fish tank where they can live, and by their mere presence lighten up your room, mood, and even life.

That small fish tank can give you all that you want from a pet without the liability of having a pet. Fish can be trained just as well as any other pet -- they recognize you and they do small somersaults when they see you coming close to the aquarium. They are as wonderful as any other pet that you can have.

Goldfish can live up to 10 years in the aquarium and you will learn to bond with them just as you would bond with a cat or a dog or a parrot. There are a few things that you will need to set up your small fish tank to make it comfortable for your new charges. Follow the list below for it:

* When you wash the filters do not use tap water; rather use the aquarium water. In this way the friendly bacteria will not be killed.
* Never overfeed your fish: The fish can live with less than necessary food, but they will die if they are overfed.
* When fish are sick have another tank where you transfer them until they recover, or they will contaminate the other fish.
* Take care you do not put in too many fish; allot about one fish to per gallon. Anymore than that and you will suffocate them to death.
Fire Safety Tips
Did you know that fire is the third leading cause of accidental deaths in the United States, yet most people ignore it. More than 150 workplace fires occur every day. So many of theses untimely deaths could have been prevented if they .....
* Choose freshwater fish over saltwater fish because the former are easier to maintain.
* Install a good filter, heater and lights.

Once you have installed your fish tank, you will realize how lovely it is to have a pet at home, and you won' t think to yourself,  even if it' s only a fish.'
