The best fish we have ever had as pets are Paradise Fish. They are pretty, easy to care for and hardy. We have a very busy household and sadly the fish don’t get as much care as they probably should. Despite that, the tank stays pretty clean, the fish seem healthy and we have had amazing luck with them. If we had fish that required more diligent care they probably wouldn’t make it. We love the fish, we just don’t have enough time to clean the tank every few days. They are great for people who don’t have a ton of time to clean tanks and watch the water levels.
