I do what I can to try and ensure that my tanks are at the right temperature for all the fish I house in them but obviously, it can be difficult to always get the right temperature for them all but definitely not…
I can honestly say I have never added anything to the water when it comes to preventing algae as I have always been too worried about it being bad for the fish. I tend to use other practices to help keep my tanks from…
Yes, any long period of light when it comes to anything that has water in will always cause a lot of algae. Think if a pool in summer, if it gets a lot of sunlight on it, eventually after a little while you will start…
I have in the past myself looked at buying fish online and I was always quite happy with the prices but it was always the delivery that put me off purchasing them. The price of the fish is really good but the shipping…
I wouldn't be too alarmed if your fish is changing colors as they get older, this is normal and happens as they get older. It is really awesome to see them changing colors as they get older. The only time I will worry…

Hardest fish to keep?
I think for me in terms of what fish I have looked after, goldfish have been the ones that I found the hardest to keep. I had a few goldfish that died within a few weeks and still to this day I do not know what killed…

Favourite Type Of Fish
Mine would without a doubt have to be goldfish when it comes to chooses a favorite fish. They are easy to manage, and they look amazing. I guess I am a little biased as I have had more goldfish than any other fish in my…
The longest living fish we ever had were some goldfish. My Grandma had them at first in her garden in her pond and when it got too much for her, we took them and the pond and placed it in our garden. They must have been…
I can't say that I have ever had any success with my fish breeding, I haven't really looked into the best setup for a tank for breeding and it wasn't something I had a total interest in at the time. I would however like…

Jellyfish
I often did wonder this myself if I am honest whether or not you could keep jellyfish at home in a tank. I can't say I have ever looked into it myself even though I do have a huge fascination with jelly fish and used to…

Size of food variety?
It really depends on the kind of fish I have at the time as to whether I give them a handful of one kind of food or if I give them different kinds of food. I know when I only had goldfish, I gave them one particular…
I can't say that it was difficult at all for me to get them to eat commercial food as they were given that before I got them, and I just carried on with it. I guess if I were to breed my fish they would also to be…
It's definitely not difficult to get started at all when it comes to freshwater tanks. I would definitely do some research into freshwater tanks and freshwater fish before you jump into getting a tank and fish to find…
When it comes to a freshwater tank, I would say start off small at first until you get the hang of maintaining a freshwater fish tank and gradually move up as and when you feel ready. What fish are you looking to keep…
I wouldn't say that starting out with a saltwater tank isn't the best way to start. If you do quite a bit of research into saltwater tanks and get down the basics when starting out, you should be fine to start out with…
Yes, without a doubt no matter where your fish tank is, it would need to always be cleaned out regularly to prevent any issues with the water that could affect your fish. I would always say that an outdoor tank should…
This is the first time I have heard of an outdoor fish tank, but it does have me intrigued. I guess with it being outside and possibly in different temperatures and also possibly in sunlight quite often, you would…

Cleaning.....?
When it comes to a full clean of my tank I will do that at least monthly unless there is some reason why I have to do that before then. Throughout that month things like cleaning marks off the side of the tank or even…
Seachem is the one I have always used because it is perfect for both freshwater and saltwater tanks meaning I only have to buy one no matter what tank I currently have. I have had no issues using Seachem and find it…
No, there should not be any issues at all when it comes to the magnets that you use in a tank for things such as you mentioned. These will have been made specifically to be safely used within this environment so that…
