How and Why Do Fish Die?
Fish do not die from old age. Fish die from several different reasons. First your fish die in your average aquarium and here's why: Your average fish tank has gravel substrate, fake plants, fish with ich and non-nutritional dry fish food. This is a ''Death Tank!" Stop Killing Your Fish! Secondly, fish die from diseases in captivity they are immune from in the wild. As well as, red algae which is a bacteria caused by oxygen deprivation due to a overwhelming amount of nutrients dumped into the water. Third, small fish are eaten by big fish. The biggest fish are eaten by the littlest parasite. The parasite doesn't mean to kill its host, out in the wild, this doesn't happen. Fourth, fishermen catch them. Father Fish has the solution to the aquarium side of each of these problems, except for the fourth one!
