Taking Care of Fish 
Never place fish in fresh water from faucet. 
In changing and cleaning fish bowl, pour all 
the water you can from bowl into dish; re¬ 
move fish from bowl into this water. 
After cleaning bowl, return this water with 
fish to bowl and add a little fresh water each 
day. Do not change more than once a week. 
The bowl will be kept clean by always having 
some water grasses and a pair of snails. Do 
not crowd fish in a bowl. A good way is to 
figure one gallon of water for each inch of 
fish, not counting tails.
