Yellowtail Purple Tang should not be confused with other tang species like powder blue, in which both look closely similar with one another. The fish is also not exactly purple as what the name implies because overall a quick glance would actually come up with a conclusion that it looks more like blue in color. Compared with its other tang cousin in the surgeonfish family, there is not much

Dwarf Cichlids such as the Apistogramma is often selected as automatic choice to create dwarf community fish tank. This tropical fish species actually belongs to the rivers located in South America and nowadays they are considered one of the favorites among cichlids fish hobbyist.

The fish is considered among one of the most popular choice of community tank mates that can mix well with other freshwater species like clown loaches, gouramis and plecos. It should not be confused another home aquarium pet fish known as the red-tailed black shark (which is actually all black except only for the tail

Krill, a small-sized invertebrate crustacean is considered one of the best foods to feed your aquarium pet fish. Almost all fish whether marine or freshwater types are bound to love chasing after them especially carnivorous species like oscars.

Fluke is often associated with parasitic infection that can easily kill a large batch of fish especially young fry. If you notice that there is a sudden increase in mortality rate causing large number of death among the fish, you should take steps to identify and check whether it could be due to fluke infestation. Usually fish that are infected with the disease will often show lethargic condition

Breeding Jack Dempsey will require a lot of patience because the biggest obstacle towards success is actually having a mature breeding pair and the hardest part is finding a compatible partner. Most of the time, the reason why breeders fail is because most of the identified fish is hand-picked and then selected to be added together usually after their sexual maturity age.

Jack Dempsey is a territorial type of cichlids, which can easily devour all your smaller fish. They are not the kind of community fish, which can get along with other tank mates and selection of different fish to live with them should be done carefully. In fact, this is only possible provided that there are enough rooms for the fish to establish its own territory and the tank mates is large

Water quality and temperature are two of the most important indicators that will tell whether your Koi will end up healthy or otherwise. A perfect water condition should have ammonia and nitrite levels readings measured to be zero with tolerance for nitrite level at least until 0.5ppm. Do not overlook on this because even slight changes in terms of ppm could have large overall effect that could

Achilles Tang is basically an orange and black colored variant combination of the surgeonfish family. This type of tang is different from the rest not only by its color mix but also from the distinct pattern whereby towards the end of the tail fin, there’s a presence of an orange patch.

Powder Blue Tang is not the type of fish recommended for beginners to saltwater aquarium.
