Care & Education

Fish Care Center

Practical husbandry guidance for Discus, Severums, Uaru, Plecos and Angelfish.

Species-specific guidance

Start With the Fish You Keep

Prepare the aquarium before delivery, keep lighting subdued, and follow the included acclimation guidance when your fish arrive.

Stable temperature, appropriate mineral content, low waste levels and consistent maintenance matter more than chasing a single “perfect” number.

Use high-quality foods appropriate for the species, size and life stage, and adjust feeding based on body condition and growth.

Interactive care tools

Interpret ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, temperature, hardness and source-water context.

Review immediate red flags and first-response checks without pretending to diagnose a disease from symptoms alone.

Calculate actual weekly water replacement and compare it with nitrate and bioload.
