This fish is upside down! 😵🪦

🐟 Upside-Down Catfish: A Unique Aquarium Buddy! 🐟

If you’re looking to add some quirky behavior to your aquarium, the Upside-Down Catfish (Synodontis nigriventris) might just be the perfect choice! These fascinating fish get their name from their habit of swimming upside down 😲, which is completely normal for them! Here’s a quick guide to help you care for these fun little swimmers:

🌿 Tank Setup:

• Tank Size: 20+ gallons
• Temperature: 72-82°F (22-28°C) 🌡️
• pH Level: 6.0-7.5
• Lighting: Low to moderate 💡
• Decor: Provide plenty of hiding spots like driftwood and caves 🪵🏠

🍽️ Diet:

• Omnivores! They love a mix of sinking pellets, live or frozen foods (like bloodworms), and veggies like zucchini. 🥒

🐠 Tankmates:

• Peaceful and good with community fish. Avoid aggressive or large fish that might see them as food! 🐡🐟

📏 Size:

• They grow to about 4 inches, making them a perfect size for most medium aquariums.

⏳ Lifespan:

• With good care, they can live for up to 10 years! 🎉

Upside-Down Catfish are social and like to be in small groups, so consider keeping at least 3-4 together. Watching them swim in their unique way is sure to be a conversation starter for any aquarium enthusiast! 🐟💬

These cuties wanted to say Hi! 🤍🩷 Pellet trained and easy to care for- Here's a concise overview of the basic requirements for keeping axolotls: 🥰

• Aquarium: 20-gallon tank minimum for one axolotl
• Water: Dechlorinated, cool (60-64°F / 15-18°C)
• Filtration: high filtration- Low-flow filter to maintain water quality
• Substrate: Fine sand or bare bottom
• Diet: Earthworms, blackworms, axolotl pellets
• Lighting: Dim, as axolotls prefer low light
• Hiding spots: PVC pipes or ceramic decorations

At least double the tank volume pre-cycled filtration to handle the higher axolotl ammonia bioload (4ppm)?

Products containing aloe vera, copper, iodine, malachite green & colloids have toxic effects to axolotls, so always check products before buying or adding to an axolotl tank.

Most aquatic products ending in “fix” are not safe for axolotls.

Fine sand substrate is okay after an axolotl reaches 5-6” inches in length.

A lot of us started with a goldfish! But….

🐠 Did you know these Goldfish Facts!? 🐠

1. Goldfish have a memory span of at least 3 months! 🧠 Not just 3 seconds like the myth says.

2. They can see more colors than humans can! 👀🌈 Their eyes have four types of cones, while we only have three.

3. Goldfish can grow up to 12 inches long in the wild! 📏 That's way bigger than your average fishbowl resident.

4. They don't have stomachs! 😮 Food passes directly through their intestines.

5. Goldfish can live up to 30 years with proper care! 🎂 That's a long-term pet commitment!

6. They can tell the difference between shapes and even recognize faces! 🔺🔴🟦

7. Goldfish produce alcohol when in low-oxygen environments! 🍺 Talk about a unique survival mechanism!

NEW SHIPMENT 60+ Pea puffers!! 🩷 I love these little things 🥰. Also known as dwarf puffers, are tiny, adorable fish that bring so much personality to a tank! They’re perfect for small setups and make a great choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists. Here’s why they’re so cute and easy to care for, along with some tips to keep them happy:Why Pea Puffers Are So CutePea puffers are super small (only about an inch long) and have big, curious eyes that follow everything around them. They’re full of spunk and love to explore their surroundings, making them very interactive with their owners. Their little “puffy” look and inquisitive nature make them irresistibly charming!Care Tips for Pea Puffers 1. Tank Size: They may be tiny, but pea puffers love their space! A single pea puffer does best in a minimum of 5 gallons, and each additional puffer needs an extra 5 gallons. This gives them room to roam and explore. 2. Water Conditions: They thrive in stable, clean water with a temperature of 74-82°F and a pH around 6.5-7.5. Frequent water changes are essential since they’re sensitive to poor water quality. 3. Tank Setup: Pea puffers love plants and hiding spots! Add plenty of live plants, rocks, and caves to mimic their natural environment and give them places to hide and explore. 4. Diet: Pea puffers are carnivores, so they prefer live or frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and snails. Feeding them live snails also helps keep their beaks from overgrowing, as they need to “grind” them down. 5. Temperament: Pea puffers can be a bit territorial, so if you’re keeping more than one, make sure they have enough space to establish their own territories. 6. Compatibility: Due to their nippy behavior, it’s best to keep pea puffers in a species-only tank or with calm, non-aggressive fish.Fun Hashtags#PeaPufferLove #TinyButMighty #PufferFishPet #CuteFishAlert #AquariumLife #FishKeeping #DwarfPuffer #UnderwaterWorld #AquariumHobby #SmallTank

Thinking about adding a crayfish to your aquarium? 🦞 Crayfish are unique, hardy additions that bring personality and a whole new level of activity to any tank! They’re great for more experienced hobbyists, as they need some specific care to stay happy and healthy.Care Tips: Crayfish need a spacious tank with hiding spots like rocks and caves since they love to burrow and explore. They’re sensitive to poor water quality, so regular water changes are essential. Crayfish are also territorial, so make sure they have their own space to reduce conflict with other tank mates. Plus, they’ll eat almost anything, so be sure to provide a varied diet of high-quality sinking pellets, vegetables, and occasional protein treats.If you’re up for the challenge, crayfish make a fascinating and rewarding addition! 🦞🌿 #CrayfishCare #AquariumLife #FreshwaterTank #AquariumHobby #CrayfishLovers #TankTips #AquariumCommunity #AquariumSetup #UniqueTankMates
