In your quest for the perfect fish tank you will come across many problems and have many difficulties. The biggest problem can be the fish, which are in the tank. The books can give you the types of fish that work well together. For the most part the books are right and will not mislead you; but something can go wrong and the books are not always correct. The only way to be sure of the fish to be correct is experience. Sometimes experimenting is good for the success of a fish tank.
For the most part it is suggested to go by the books and get fish that are compatible. As stated before the books are not always correct, so event if it is said that the fish will be fine together than they may not be. After new fish are added to your tank, keep close attention to the fish for a week or so. If everyone in the tank is happy than you can lessen your watch more and more as time recedes.
If you find a fish that is causing a problem you must first identify the problem. The fish may be attacking all the other fish or attacking a certain group of fish. The case may be that two of the fish are battling it out or one fish does not like a certain other fish. The fish may just be digging or very hyper. Whatever the problem is it can be fixed.
Solving this problem can be easy and done without having to kill the fish. Isolating the fish that has the problem in a different tank for a while is best. If the problems cease in your main tank then the fish cannot be with the other fish in the tank, and is best left alone or maybe only with its own kind.
If you have checked everything that you possibly can then it is time to take action. First, try removing the fish and all of its kind from the tank and put them in another tank alone. This should usually solve the problem within your main tank. If you find that the fish are still acting up, that you should see if they might be sick or breeding. Give the fish a week or so in the new tank if they are still acting up, the water or temperature may be the problem. Next, experiment with the decorations in the tank. Finally, if you still are pursuing the problem then the fish might have to be given to a different home.
The most common problem with fish that have a problem is that they dislike a different fish. If you find that this is the problem then try just giving the problem the fish away. This will avoid conflict and make life easier.
