The fluorescent lighting in your aquarium needs to be checked once a month. The
lighting provides heat and if your light has reached its last legs, it is better to change it
quickly. Remember all kinds of fish will not take kindly to sharp changes in water
temperature. Inspect tubing, air-stones and other equipment to see if they are in proper
working order. Also remember to check the expiry date on the boxes and bottles of the
supplies you are using in your aquarium. Your test kits also have a date on them. Using
these after their expiration can give you wrong readings, and will prompt you to take
unnecessary precautionary steps. Scrape the glass surfaces of your aquarium to remove
algae from them. A special kind of scrubber is available to clean the aquarium surfaces
thoroughly.
