FAQs About Fish Bowls

What are the best freestanding fish tank brands?

The best selling freestanding fish tank brands are:

Can you keep fish in a glass bowl?

Yes. You can keep many small fish in a glass fish bowl. Keep a few things in mind. First, your fish should not be under a window or receive too much direct sunlight. This can make the water too hot for comfort and safety. You also want to make sure that you keep small, hardy fish who are able adapt to small environments. Betta, goldfish, guppies and tetras are some fish that are made for glass fish bowls.

Do all large fish bowls have lights?

No. Not all fish bowls have lights. However, Petco has many glass bowls and plastic fish bowl options with a built-in light. These models may have a standard or multi-color remote light that help fish thrive in bowls that don’t get any natural light. MCR lights offer a remote control with preset light colors and brightness control. You can also set up your bowl to have light on during the day hours only. Large bowls with light can help replicate a tank environment for small fish when you don’t have room for an aquarium.

What fish are suitable for bowls?

Many small fish can live well in a bowl. With the help of aquarium water conditioners and additives, you can keep a bowl clean and healthy. Good fish for a glass bowl or plastic bowl include goldfish, bettas, endler guppies, ember tetras, sparkling gourami, pea pufferfish and scarlet badis. Keep in mind that you may want to limit the number of fish you keep in a single bowl, and in cases where fish tend to reproduce quickly—stick to all female or all male fish in the same bowl.

Are fish happy in a fish bowl?

Yes, many small fish do well in fish bowls. Feed your fish daily and keep the water clean by replacing about 25% of the water every week. This helps to eliminate waste. You may also find that algaecides and water clarity products keep your fish bowl in great condition. The cleaner and healthier the water is in your bowl, the happier your fish will be. You may also want to add fake plants and rock accents, so your fish have places to hide and explore in their habitat.
