There are a few things you can do to maintain good water quality:

• Change the water regularly. The frequency of water changes will vary depending on the size of your aquarium and the number of fish you have. As a general rule of thumb, you should change about 25% of the water every week.
• Use a water filter to remove impurities from the water. There are a variety of water filters available on the market, so choose one that is appropriate for the size of your aquarium.
