Knowing a thing or two about aquariums, fish, plumbing, and electricity will be of some help. You'll also need to be bonded/ have some type of business insurance.
You might want to check with local pet/fish stores in your area to find out if there are other cleaning services around and see about getting a position with one of them (or interviewing an owner) to see what's involved.
This website has a section devoted to people interested in going into the aquarium/services trade: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/AqBizSubWebIndex/Biz%20Index/Biz%20index.htm You might find other recommendations here.

I work at www.billgoody.com and I really must say it takes a lot to do this. It's not something that one person can establish if they wish to be successful. You will need a team because there are so many things involved with running a healthy aquarium.

Do you propose a gravel vacuum? they are no longer precisely the suited decision. in the experience that your tank is totally cycled, has a stable clear out, high quality gravel, no longer overfed or crowded with fish, then there is not any choose for one. My tanks all have sand, and are planted with a good number of flora and have filters. The sand prevents fish poop, fish foodstuff and different detritus from sinking into the substrate so it maintains to be on the suitable. The micro organism will then degrade it into smaller products, then those products would be sucked by skill of the clear out at nighttime when I turn it on. The flora will additionally take up the detritus. Please do no longer do what lots of people who have not any thought the thank you to preserve fish often do. it relatively is to take out all the substrate, embellishes and stuff, sparkling each little thing and positioned each little thing into the tank. this could preclude your tank to be ever cycled and could make your fish undesirable and under pressure.
