To grow fish you need an aquarium made of glass. There are 3 types of aquarium: Fish bowls, small, and wall. Fish bowls hold 50 water, small aquariums hold 200 and large aquariums hold 500. The small tanks can only hold 4 fish, while the large tanks can hold 10.

Fish cannot reproduce asexually but can interbreed (no new breeds of fish can be made this way), so you need at least 2 of any kind of fish to get new eggs. Fish eggs do not hatch on their own; they must be removed and put back in the tank to hatch.

Fish are aquatic creatures that can be kept as pets, used for certain devious crimes, or turned into delicious food. There is a wide variety of species you can keep that range from freshwater to saltwater and from basic to exotic.

Fish-Keeping Equipment

Growing Fish

Keeping Fish Alive

When the fish get hungry the 2nd light on the tank will change to yellow/red. Fish must be fed regularly or they will die. Having more fish in the tank will increase the rate at which it accumulates dirt. Make sure to keep the tank clean and keep a good eye on your fish.

Reproduction

Fish cannot reproduce asexually but can interbreed (no new breeds of fish can be made this way), so you need at least 2 of any kind of fish to get new eggs. Fish eggs do not hatch on their own; they must be removed and put back in the tank to hatch.
