AQUARIUM NECESSITIES 
A FEW HINTS 
ON CARE OF 
THE AQUARIUM 
FEEDING—It is much better and 
far less harmful to feed fish too 
little than to overfeed. 
WATER—Do not change your 
water unless absolutely necessary, 
as long as it stays clear it is in 
good condition. When you do 
change, however, first have your 
new water prepared a day ahead. 
Never forget to have the tempera' 
ture of the water, old and new, 
the same. 
SICKNESS—Fish, of course, are 
just as likely to get sick as any 
other living being. Remove a 
sick fish immediately from the 
aquarium and place it first in a 
solution of salt water (about one 
tablespoonful of sea salt in one 
gallon of water) and after 15 to 
30 minutes place it in still another 
vessel of fresh water. 
ITCH —is best cured by increas' 
ing temperature to about 85 de' 
grees and adding about 3 to 5 
drops of Itch Remedy to a gab 
Ion of water. 
These few suggestions are made 
with the knowledge that there are 
plenty of exceptions to all rules.

AERATOR 
The old theory of aeration 
being harmful is now dislodged.

a perfectly balanced aquarium. 
This Junior Aerator is fully 
automatic. Will operate on 110' 
120 volts. Costs about 1/25 of a 
cent per hour. Full directions
