Tim ran all the way home, and changed into his jeans and sneakers. He ate his dinner quickly, and sat at the window waiting for his dad to come. He couldn’t wait for six o’clock when the fair would begin. He had been saving his pocket money for weeks. When Tim and his family arrived at the fair, it had just opened.

The term is applied to single tanks for home use in which fishes are kept for their decorative effect and interesting habits, and to public institutions with tanks for exhibitions and scientific study of aquatic life. I make home aquarium to stimulate a natural environment. Aquatic plants supply the oxygen needed by the fish, but often an aerating device is used to furnish additional oxygen. Goldfish enjoy cool water, but the popular tropical fish must have water at a constant temperature of 22ᴼC (72ᴼF) or more. I must keep the water pure and free of algae for long periods by sufficient aeration and by keeping mollusks in the aquarium. A layer of sand or gravel at the bottom of the tank will hold the roots of such important aquatic plants as tape grass, vallisneria spiralis, and aid in the removal of debris. My home aquariums are range in sizes, from small fishbowls holding two or three pets, to huge tanks. 16. A place to keep aquatic plants and animals, called… a. Fish tank b. Fish bowl c. Aquarium d.
