Diet, the ultimate... nah, just some ideas.

Diet is complex, important, easy to get right, impossible to get perfect. Come and listen to me try and summarise a huge topic in a few ideas and tips. 

Nature is important, but so is realism, it's impossible to have a true ecosystem in your tank without major inputs and outputs. Let's discuss how to make things more natural. 

Water changes, crucial and debated, but not in my opinion debatable.    If you like what we do, please consider supporting us on Patreon  https://www.patreon.com/c/tropicalfishkeepinguk Or head over to the website  www.tropicalfishkeeping.co.uk 

We import most of the fish that are sold in shops, and there are issues with that. Join me as we dive into the reasons, and possible solutions.    www.tropicalfishkeeping.co.uk  Please consider supporting us and all we are doing https://www.patreon.com/c/tropicalfishkeepinguk  

Have you just got a new tank and you've not got a clue what to do with it? Here's a little intro to start,    Check out our website tropicalfishkeeping.co.uk for more articles to help, and there is a video series on what to do starting on our YouTube channel Tropical Fish Keeping UK

Some questions that have been asked. IF you like this let me know and I'll make it a regular thing.   We have questions on plants not growing, fish not breeding and more. Got a question yourself. Head over to any of the social medias and ask.  For some of the plants I mentioned.  https://tropicalfishkeeping.co.uk/the-easy-planted-aquarium/    Sorry if i sound a bit breathless, allergies decided to exist, hopefully I can get them sorted soon. 

Join me as I ramble on about the link between humans and the pets we love.   

Let's carry on look at cichlids, this time moving to the Andes to look at Andinoacara. From Blue Acara to Green Terrors, these can be amazing species as pet fish, or a great breeding project. 

The advice that various AI platforms are pumping out is dangerously wrong, this is fine if it's just a random fact, but now when people are using this, and pushing it to treat animals, Fish especially. 

Deformed, diseased, and cheap. So many of the fish that are being sold, shouldn't be available at all. Let's stop thinking of this as a cheap hobby and start looking to pay more for our pets.
