         Do you know how to keep fish at home?
         The fish need room. They must not be crowded(拥挤). Fish need oxygen
    (氧气). Fish get it from water in the tank. There must be enough water for all
    fish in the tank. So the size of the tank is important..
         In the tank many people put small plants(植物). They give oxygen to the
    water. Plants help in other ways, too. Fish can nibble(轻咬)on the plants.

    light there. But remember: a window may let cold air in. The cold can kill
    (杀死) your fish. Too hot water can kill your fish, too.

    much food is bad. It will make the water dirty. However, the fish should get
    just enough food. They should finish the food in 10 minutes. No extra(多余) is
    left. When this happens, the amount(数量)of food is right.
    1. A tank near the window may NOT be good for pet fish because________.
