Tank Mate Thursday!
We love the pop of vibrancy both the glowlight tetra and the guppy offer an aquarium. Both loving heavily planted aquariums, these two species are great for smaller aquariums. The glowlight tetra and the guppy are peaceful tankmates that are perfect for beginners.

Do you keep either of these species? What are your tank mates?

Tank Mate Thursday!
With so many tetra's available, which one do you choose? We love the congo tetra, and if your looking for a variation of this classic tetra, check out the yellow tail congo tetra. Larger than most other tetra species, this fish is impressive in a shoal of 6 or more. Somewhat skittish, but highly active, it's the perfect tank mate for the black kuhli loach that will keep to itself on the bottom of the tank. Both species do well with soft and warm parameters. Provide plenty of plant cover to keep these two happy and healthy.

🐟 Freshwater Species Review 🐟
The blue cherry shrimp is an excellent invertebrate species for beginners. Their vivid blue colouration make for stunning additions to a planted aquarium. Suitable for nano aquariums, we love the peaceful nature of the blue cherry shrimp as they go about their day foraging on organic material in the aquarium.

Tank Mate Thursday!
Looking for small shoaling species that are perfect for your planted aquarium?
The glowlight tetra and leopard danio are excellent tank mates. While the leopard danio will tolerate cooler water temperatures, they will happily inhabit an aquarium in the warmer temperatures preferred by the glowlight tetra. A fantastic pair to complement a planted tank.

🐟 Freshwater Species Review 🐟
The blue forest jewel is a magnificent cichlid species from Africa, known for it's impressive colouration. Easy to keep, however aggressive when breeding, this species is best suited for intermediate aquarists or those willing to take on the challenge of an aggressive species. Despite their temperament, they are popular and can be kept with other mild and non-aggressive species with the right tank conditions. Provide plenty of available territory to claim.

Tank Mate Thursday!
The costae black line tetra is a more subdued looking tetra, but their green hues will pop in a dimly lit aquarium with dark substrate. We love this species in a black water styled aquarium, heavily planted with lots of driftwood, perfect for this soft water loving tetra. The ideal tank mate is the humble corydoras catfish. The corydoras is a peaceful bottom dweller that wont intimidate the costae black line tetra and will do well with softer water parameters.

Saltwater species review 🐡
The lawnmower blenny, also known as the carpet blenny is a saltwater species of fish that, as you may of guess from the name, is an algae eating bottom dweller. They are a good species for beginner saltwater aquarists, as they are peaceful and do well with other peaceful marine species. Provide lots of live rock and opportunity for algae to grow to keep the lawnmower blenny satisfied. Good filtration and oxygenation is desirable.

What's not to love about corydoras catfish?!
Popular for good reason, the corydoras catfish is the perfect addition to peaceful tropical community aquariums. Available in a huge range of colour and pattern variations, it's no wonder this fish becomes one for aquatic collectors. Their peaceful demeanor means they are best suited to an aquarium with other peaceful species. Some varieties grow up to 8cm, while dwarf varieties push 3cm. Perfect for beginners and advance aquarists alike, the corydoras catfish sits high on our recommended aquarium species list.

Freshwater Species Review 🐟
Despite it's name, the gold tetra is more silver in captivity. This is because the gold colour comes from a harmless infection in the species in the wild. An impressive tetra in a group, this species prefers softer water and is perfectly suited for a planted aquarium. Easy to keep, we recommend this beautiful species as a beginners species.

Tank Mate Thursday!
They may appear as unlikely tankmates, but the guppy and hoplo catfish can be peaceful tankmates. Both the hoplo catfish and guppy like to be kept in groups. Provide ample space and they will both stay out of each others way.

Freshwater Species Review 🐟

The sparkling gourami is less commonly found in aquarium stores and is popular among aquarists. This small species of gourami only grows to approximately 4cm and has a unique brown based body with iridescent blue spots. They can be a little more sensitive than some other gourami varieties but are a rewarding & worthy fish to keep.
