So many fish hobbyists start their dive into the hobby after seeing a beautiful tank in a dentist’s office or hotel and thinking, “that would look great at my house.” They may or may not be interested in the myriad levels of behavior on display or the requirements to maintain what they desire, but they recognize the beauty and allure of these fish aquariums. A well assembled and maintained fish tank is a gorgeous and compelling addition to almost any space. Excellent displays pull people into the hobby, but the world of information to learn about these cool fish keep them coming back for more. The only requirement for becoming a successful fish hobbyist is curiosity! As a new hobbyist becomes more familiar with the requirements of keeping the species they’ve selected, they inevitably get curious about the ecology of their fish, the fishes’ lifecycle, and compatible tank mates. This also often leads both new and old fish enthusiasts into the practice of breeding their new aquatic pets.
