Did you know that fish keeping can lead to fame? If you like the idea of catching your own aquarium fish in the wild, you may be lucky enough one day to have a newly discovered fish named after you.

It's important to remember that some forms of aquatic life are natural enemies. If you're concerned that creating your aquarium's ecosystem could lead to trouble, we're always here to help you figure out the best mix of fish.

You may have noticed that fish don't have ears. They do hear, though. They can detect vibrations in the water. By analyzing vibrations, they can tell the difference between a potential food source and a threat.

Do you ever feel like most people's aquariums are too sparsely decorated? If you want the bounty of the ocean in your living room, you may benefit from a reef tank, where you'll be able to support a vast amount of ocean life.

11/03/2014

Not sure what size aquarium tank you need? This often depends on the type and number of fish you plan to keep. The general rule is that the tank needs to be large enough for the fish to swim around freely, with enough water to disperse the fishes' waste until it can be processed by the filter.

Aquarium heaters generally consist of a glass tube housing, a heating element, and a controlling circuitry packaged inside. Heaters are divided into two main types: non-submersible and submersible. Non-submersible heaters clamp to the rim of the aquarium with the heating element in the water.

04/03/2014

Do you ever wish there were better decoration options for aquariums besides castles and mermaids? If you'd prefer to create a more natural environment for your saltwater fish, a reef aquarium may be right for you.

27/02/2014

You should place your new aquarium on an appropriate aquarium stand that is suited for the weight of water and gravel. It will be important that your stand is level. Also, your fish tank should be positioned away from direct sunlight and any air vents.

25/02/2014

In most tropical fish habitats, the water temperature is pretty stable. That's one reason it's important to maintain a stable temperature in a tropical aquarium. The two best pieces of equipment for this are a quality heater and a thermometer.

20/02/2014

If you want to teach your children about the cycle of life, a molly aquarium may be a good place to start. Mollies bear live young. Maintaining a family tank with adults and young can be a fun project for the whole family.

18/02/2014

The photoperiod is simply the length of time the lights are on in an aquarium. In other words, if a light is on from 10 A.M. to 10 P.M., then the photoperiod is 12 hours. Since most of the plants and animals in fish tanks are from tropical locations, 12 hours should be the standard photoperiod.

13/02/2014

Fish have eyes, but they see the world differently from humans and even from one another depending on their habitat. Salt water reef fishes can see in color, where many bottom dwelling river fish can only see their environment in shades of gray.

11/02/2014

Do you find regular fish tanks with a few fish and plants a little on the boring side? If you're interested in getting a saltwater aquarium, you may have all the elements of a coral reef at your disposal to create a truly interesting tank.

23/01/2014

An important lesson to know about water temperature in your aquarium is that wide fluctuations of temperatures, high or low, are extremely stressful to your animals. In response to these fluctuations, animals must expend energy, therefore taking away energy from their immunity response.

Add some interest to your community freshwater tank with labyrinth fish like pearl gouramis. They breathe air and even use air bubbles to procreate. Mated pairs lay eggs that float, and build floating bubble nests to protect their young.

16/01/2014

When you are setting up your freshwater aquarium, depending on the types of fish you would like to keep, it may be necessary to test the pH and water hardness and make adjustments using proper aquarium chemicals or natural buffers to recreate a specific environment.

14/01/2014

We recognize that some people don't want their aquariums to simply blend into the background in their home. When you want to ensure that your aquarium is eye-catching, we're always happy to help you find the fish and coral that will provide the most contrast to your space.

09/01/2014

Are you considering which type of aquarium heater to get? Non-submersible heaters would fail quickly in a saltwater tank, so the submersible type is the only option if you have a saltwater aquarium.

07/01/2014

Before you purchase your first aquarium, it's very important to think about the types of fish and plant life you'd like it to house. Since freshwater fish can't survive in saltwater environments, getting the right equipment for your future fish will ensure you don't have to settle on a different type of fish.

02/01/2014

When determining how many fish your aquarium setup can handle, you need to look at the components of your tank. The efficiency of the filtration and degree of gas exchange between the water's surface and the air are both critical to tanks that house more fish.

While submersible aquarium heaters require a bit more of an investment, they are also much more convenient than other types of heaters. It is easy to set the temperature, and the heater can also be much more readily concealed.

26/12/2013

It's important to remember that not all aquariums will require professional cleaning services. Let's talk about the upkeep requirements that go along with the different aquarium options you're considering.

24/12/2013

Knowing the spectrum, or color, of light produced will help you to determine the "look" you would like to see in your aquarium. Light bulbs used for aquariums and their inhabitants are rated by manufacturers to help pick the right spectrum.

Goldfish are considered pretty tame aquarium residents, but they're remarkable fish. Did you know that an adult goldfish can live as long as 25 years? Goldfish are also related to carp and koi.

17/12/2013

After World War I, home aquariums became more widely popular, as many homes now had electricity, allowing for artificial lighting as well as aeration, filtration, and heating of the water. Native fish were most commonly found in home aquariums of the time, but it wasn't long before more exotic species became available.

12/12/2013

Are you planning on putting live plants in your freshwater aquarium? Remember, water harness and pH are parameters that need to be monitored in an aquarium bearing live plants. Water harness refers to the number of minerals in the water.

10/12/2013

When it comes to successful fish keeping, regular scheduled maintenance is the key to success. You seldom, if ever, have to overhaul your tanks if you keep the right supplies on hand and make weekly tank testing and cleaning a habit.

05/12/2013

We recognize that many of today's modern aquariums are more complex than the tanks many of us had as children. When you want to ensure you're getting everything your fish need to truly thrive, we're always happy to help.

03/12/2013

Do you know how to set up your freshwater aquarium? Fill the tank with about two inches of water. Rinse the substrate (gravel/sand), and then add it to the aquarium. You will need approximately 1-1.5 pounds of substrate per gallon of water.

28/11/2013

Submersible aquarium heaters are said to have more reliability and features than the non-submersible kinds. These heaters can be completely submerged in the water, because they are well sealed to prevent water from entering.

26/11/2013

When you are determining heating options for an aquarium, the rule to follow is five watts per gallon of water. As the tank gets larger, this ratio can actually be reduced, and is a better idea to utilize more than one heater instead of one large one.

21/11/2013

We understand that some varieties of fish and aquatic plant life can be major investments for your family. If you're considering buying a more expensive fish, let's ensure you have everything you'll need ready to go at home before you make your purchase.
