Fish will not thrive unless enough plants are growing to furnish them with oxygen. To do this there should be not less than one plant to every two gallons of water. The ideal temperature is about 50 degrees, and a shady corner, or a window facing north, is best during the summer, and an east window during the winter. (Cultural Leaflet on request.)
