We are passionate about fish and, in particular the foods that they eat. That is why we have produced a select range of high quality foods, which are clearly labelled and which use natural ingredients. Most of the fish we keep are not fish eaters - and yet most of the foods available are based on fish meal. We have addressed this dilemma and use cultured insect meal to totally or partially replace

the fish meal in many of our foods. It's what fish have been eating for millions of years, so they have evolved to digest and process it more effectively. As a result we get good food conversion ratios for our foods and low waste.

We Visited Oaklands college and had a tour of the animal units, where the students get to learn about some incredible animals.
The college have been using FishScience foods for a while now and have seen first-hand how the fish enjoy and benefit from the range. What an amazing place to be able to learn and document these aquatic animals.

๐Ÿคฏ Big news!

Old names, a new classification. The end of ๐ถ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘ฆ๐‘‘๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘Ž๐‘  as we know it. Probably the biggest news in the world of Corydoradinae catfishes in 40 years! Luiz Tencatt and fellow researchers have just published a reconstructed phylogeny of the subfamily Corydoradinae. This revision resurrects historical names, with the result that the ๐ถ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘ฆ๐‘‘๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘Ž๐‘  lineages are now to be split into separate genera, not least ๐ต๐‘Ÿ๐‘œ๐‘โ„Ž๐‘–๐‘  is back!

The family Callichthyidae, which comprises the subfamilies Corydoradinae and Callichthyinae, represents one of the largest families within the Siluriformes.

Corydoradinae, the largest subfamily of Callichthyidae, alone accounts for >200 valid species, with new species being described frequently. This subfamily holds significant popularity among catfish enthusiasts worldwide, mainly because ๐ถ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘ฆ๐‘‘๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘Ž๐‘  are small, peaceful, and colourful fishes. Recognizing the existence of polyphyletic groups within Corydoradinae, the aim of this study was to construct a new phylogenetic hypothesis using genomic data (ultraconserved elements) and to re-evaluate the synonymized genera using the most recent morphological data.

Our results supported the monophyly of Corydoradinae and identified seven distinct groups of species, each one with an associated pre-available generic name. These genera, namely ๐ถ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘ฆ๐‘‘๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘Ž๐‘ , ๐ด๐‘ ๐‘๐‘–๐‘‘๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘Ž๐‘ , ๐‘†๐‘๐‘™๐‘’๐‘Ÿ๐‘œ๐‘š๐‘ฆ๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘Ž๐‘ฅ, ๐บ๐‘Ž๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘Ÿ๐‘œ๐‘‘๐‘’๐‘Ÿ๐‘š๐‘ข๐‘  (resurrected), ๐‘‚๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘’๐‘œ๐‘”๐‘Ž๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘’๐‘Ÿ (resurrected), ๐ต๐‘Ÿ๐‘œ๐‘โ„Ž๐‘–๐‘  (resurrected), and ๐ป๐‘œ๐‘๐‘™๐‘–๐‘ ๐‘œ๐‘š๐‘Ž (resurrected), were all validated based on evidence derived from molecular and morphological analyses.
