While everyone's idea of essential products varies, starting with the basics helps you create a happy and healthy aquarium. Many fish-keepers use the following products:

A simple fish care routine can be as basic as adding a conditioner and clarifier at every water change. You'll want to keep a filter running to add vital oxygen to your tank and help clear out debris and odors. With a range of items to choose from, Instacart allows you to easily save time shopping for fish care products. 

Many fish-keepers feed their fish once or twice a day. You don't want to overfeed them because leftover food can clog your filter and create harmful toxins. Most importantly, you should only feed your fish as much food as they can eat in 5 minutes or less. Overfeeding can cause various health issues, including fatty liver disease. Too much food can also stress the fish, making them more susceptible to infections. 

Shopping for fish food has never been easy, thanks to the Instacart app's delivery selection. Now you can have tasty fish food delivered to you with the convenience you expect from Instacart.

You should change 25% of the water in your fish tank every 2-4 weeks. Move the gravel or use a gravel cleaner during water changes. Try to avoid changing more than 50% of the water, which removes the beneficial bacteria from the water and makes the tank water cloudy. Via Instacart, you can save time shopping for all your go-to water conditioners and clarifiers to help you maintain a gorgeous tank for your fish.

While tap water is safe for people, it can be dangerous for your fish. Tap water contains chemical disinfectants such as chlorine that can be harmful to an aquarium. One way to clear unwanted chlorine is by aerating water overnight with a filter. However, this method can be less effective than pre-treating it with a liquid water conditioner. 

A water conditioner detoxifies tap water, making it instantly safe for pet fish. This product removes unwanted chlorine and chloramine while also treating water containing heavy metals.
