You should purchase the fish and food after you have given your new fish tank a period of time to cycle. Some say to allow your tank at least a 24 hour period of time for cycling. I recommend you wait at least a week before introducing fish.If you give your fish tank a week to cycle, you will have plenty of opportunity to ensure it is maintaining a stable temperature, the filtration system is working properly, and a bit of biology can build up.A note about water temperature: Most fish can live comfortably in water that is between 72 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit (22 and 27 Celsius). Once you have decided what species of fish you desire, you should determine what temperature your fish tank should be set.Click the fish to shop Your Fish Tank Adventures Amazon Store!View Privacy PolicyThank you for subscribing!
