The temperature for fish is a question that comes up time and time again in both hobby and commercial fishing. For the average angler, this question is easy to answer; they’ll just go with the flow and choose whatever feels comfortable. But for commercial fisherman, this decision can mean the difference between supplying a customer with fresh seafood or going without. In this blog post, we will explore the implications of different fish temperatures and provide you with a framework for making an informed temperature choice for your next fishing trip.
Types of Fish
There are many different types of fish that can be kept in a home aquarium. Some fish like corydoras and gouramis prefer very warm water temperatures, while others like tetra, barbs, and catfish prefer cooler water. Many people keep all sorts of fish in their home tanks because they enjoy the variety. However, not all fish can adapt to a wide range of water temperatures. For example, some tropical fish like bettas and anoles require warmer water than most other fish. If you are planning on keeping more than one type of fish in your tank, it is important to research their specific needs so you don’t end up with an unhappy or injured pet.
