Welcome to the aquarium fish website
Pet fish are great. The keeping of them is relaxing, educational and certainly fun. Most aquarists keep tropical freshwater fish in their aquariums. Shoaling fish like the neon tetra, glowlight tetra or hatchet fish. Cichlids like the discus, angel fish or the African cichlids of Lake Malawi and Tanganyika. Livebearers, killifish, anabantids and catfish – the fact is there are so many species to chose from.
However keeping fish happy requires a knowledge of water chemistry, food, and the fishes preferences, and thats where websites like this come in.
Tropical fish species. There is a species database, with photographs, and breeding tips of some of the very many species of fish available – if you are looking for a certain fish, try the alphabetical index on the left.
Tropical fish breeding. If you have sucessfully (or unsucessfully) bred any tropical fish species, fill out our multiple-choice questionaire; give other aquarists an idea of what to do, or what not to do. There is no one way to be a sucessful fish breeder, but all data is compiled and automatically analysed to suggest the most likely recipe for sucess.
Aquarist articles. There are articles on every aspect of fishkeeping; from beginners pages on tank set-up, to breeding some of the hobby’s more unusual species.
Fish images. Have a look at some of the most recent fish photos added to the site.
