- **Understand Risks:** Overheating can reduce oxygen, increase fish metabolism, and lead to stress and disease in fish.
- **Relocate Aquarium:** Move the tank away from windows, direct sunlight, and heat sources.
- **Use Fans:** Promote evaporative cooling by blowing air across the water surface.
- **Adjust Lighting:** Reduce or turn off aquarium lights during the hottest part of the day.
- **Float Ice Packs:** Gradually lower water temperature by floating sealed ice packs or frozen water bottles.

Is your local pet shop lying to you and selling you fake stuff?

I met a nice guy who recently bought a tank for his son.

The tank holds about 60 liters of water. It has 6 Torpedo barbs, 8 emerald green Barbs, 4 corys catfish, 2 silver sharks, 2 Hong Kong plecs, and 1 redtail catfish.

You might be thinking, “What’s the big deal?” Well, here’s the thing: the tank still has its original filter, a Juwel Bio One, which isn’t meant to handle so many fish and their waste.

The real problem is that the pet shop guy, from a famous London aquarium/pet shop, said everything would be fine.

With so many fish and a small filter, you’d have to change the water and clean the filter every 2-3 days to keep the fish alive and the filter from getting clogged!

So, please, folks, question why the pet shop keeper is smiling so big. Are they really trying to help you or just trying to take your money?
