About This Site.


The pages will be divided into seperate sections geared to all hobbyist. They will feature a brief description of the most commonly kept major fish families. There will also be a monthly changing page with detailed descriptions of individual fishes, dealing from their native habitat to their up-keep in a home aquarium. This page will feature fish not only from the profiled families, but from the complete Genera of fishes. I will also have a generalized overview on the tank conditions needed for spawning. Any case specific breeding methods will be covered in the detailed fish descriptions. A large fish index section will have quick information and pictures on many of todays favorite fish in an easy to read table format.
In addition to comments on new products, informative links, and products that in my opinion live up to their claims. Links to my favorite mail order companies and a complete aquatic term glossary, with links from the text in bold as well as an icon to all other defined terms from the hobby located in each section. This site is updated regularly, and if you would like to notified when a large update has taken place please join the mailing list and I will let you know.

My qualifications; I have been involved in the tropical fish hobby for over twenty years, starting with the obligatory twenty gallon community setup. Over the years I have kept almost every kind of fish, in setups ranging from community to Biotope to saltwater mini-reef systems.

My "fish room" had a high of twenty tanks ranging in sizes from five to fifty-five gallons, with different breeding species, and home made wet-dry filtration systems. I am currently running a twenty nine gallon Lake Malawi Mbuna Biotope, a forty gallon live plant, community setup, a fifteen gallon salt water mini-reef and a ten gallon Neon tank.
The information I post here will come from my experience, and a large reference library. If you found this site helpful or want to make a comment please sign my Guestbook.
