Spring Cleaning Your Aquarium
Sunday March 23, 2008
Everyone gets the urge to freshen up in the spring. Instead of only cleaning closets, why not spruce up your aquarium too? Start with a good cleaning.
Next trim your live plants and give them a good fertilizing. If you have artificial plants, take them out and scrub them well. Banish any stubborn algae growth by soaking the plants in 10% bleach, then rinse well and air dry before returning them to the tank. Lastly, don't forget the water. Water changes are important any time of the year.
