Hi    !   We are one of the newest sites to cater to people who are setting up a fish tank.  With eighty percent of Freshwater Aquarium starters quitting within twelve months of starting their first freshwater aquarium, we decided to put this site together to help people through the research and set up stage of owninng an aquarium.

We hope that you find it as useful as it is meant to be. We’ve tried to think of everything that you can possibly want to know when you’re setting up a fish tank.  We believe that you should start with a freshwater fish tank setup, simply because it is easier than a marine fish tank.  No salt and fewer things to worry about.

We also recommend that you include plants when you set up your first tank, simply because they help to keep the water clear and the fish healthy and they look good.  We have tried to cover everything to do with setting up an aquarium, but if you think of something that we haven’t covered, let us know and we’ll get right onto it.

I personally think that it is impossible to put all the information about every freshwater fish and plant into one website but we have tried to cover all the easy to keep fish and plants that are best if you are setting up a fish tank for the first time, but we won’t be offended if we are just one of the reference sites that you use. There are some really good sites out there by other hobbyists and enthusiasts and you can never have too much information, especially when dealing with your first fish tank set up.

If you find that you are moving on and want information that we don’t cover, then congratulations, you have just qualified and are no longer a newbie to the freshwater aquarium hobby.

So Keep Checking back for Information on your Freshwater Aquarium
