You need the proper equipment in your
aquariums to ensure that your fish live healthily
and happily. Different types of fish require different
environments. Make sure you know what type of fish
you want to keep and what they require before you
start setting up. Take a look at our fish categories
in the left hand menu bar for information on fish
types.
Below you will find articles on tanks,
filtration systems, heating, lighting and cleaning
to help you set up your fish tank.

Fish keeping has a long history and has been
a relaxing hobby for centuries. The ancient Chinese (Song
Dynasty) is the first civilization thought to have kept
fish for ornamental purposes. Even earlier than the Chinese
though, civilizations were keeping plenty of fish in various
types of holding containers for food purposes. We've come
along way since then and hopefully we can help others enjoy
this great hobby.
It is very important to learn about the fish
you want to keep. This will let you know what conditions
they will need, what equipment you will want, and how to
set up your tank. When you research your fish, you can determine
how big they will get and thereby determine the size of
the tank you will need to keep them happy and healthy.
