Everything You Need to Create a Healthy Aquarium

Keeping fish is about much more than choosing your favourite species. A successful aquarium depends on the right combination of quality food, clean water, filtration, suitable equipment, fish health products and an environment that allows your fish to thrive.

At Absolutely Everything Pet Supplies, our fish and aquarium range includes products for freshwater and marine aquariums, from everyday fish food through to tanks, filters and specialist fish treatments.

Whether you're setting up your first aquarium or you're an experienced fishkeeper, choosing the right products for your aquarium is essential.

🐟 Fish Food

Good nutrition is one of the foundations of healthy fish.

Absolutely Everything offers a broad selection of fish foods from recognised brands including Sera, Hikari and Tetra, with products designed for different fish species, feeding behaviours and aquarium requirements.

Typical fish-food options include:

• Flakes
• Granules
• Pellets
• Sinking wafers
• Tablets
• Species-specific foods
• Colour-enhancing foods
• Tropical fish foods
• Goldfish foods
• Guppy foods
• Discus foods

• Baby fish foods

For example, the Sera range includes tropical flakes and granules, goldfish food, guppy granules, discus foods, shrimp granules, spirulina tabs and pleco chips. Hikari also offers products such as sinking wafers, micro wafers, guppy food, goldfish food and Vibra Bites.

Choosing fish food

Consider the species, size and feeding behaviour of your fish. Some fish feed at the surface, while others naturally feed in the middle or bottom of the aquarium.

🏠 Fish Tanks & Aquariums

The aquarium itself is the foundation of your fishkeeping environment.

Absolutely Everything stocks aquarium systems such as the Boyu EC 400 Aquarium, available in 33L and 66L configurations.

When choosing an aquarium, consider:

• Tank capacity
• Available space
• Number and size of fish
• Freshwater or marine setup
• Filtration requirements
• Lighting requirements
• Ease of maintenance
• Future growth of your fish

A larger aquarium can also provide greater water volume, which can make maintaining stable conditions easier when properly managed.

💧 Aquarium Filters

Filtration is one of the most important components of an aquarium.

A good filter helps remove waste and debris while supporting the biological processes that help maintain water quality.

Absolutely Everything stocks Boyu aquarium filters, including internal filters designed for freshwater and marine aquariums. The Boyu 750 Internal Filter, for example, provides mechanical and biological filtration and includes adjustable water flow and a spray bar for enhanced aeration.

Common filtration functions include:

• Mechanical filtration
• Biological filtration
• Water circulation
• Aeration
• Removal of suspended particles

The filter should be appropriately sized for the aquarium and maintained according to the manufacturer's instructions.

🌊 Water Quality & Aquarium Maintenance

Clean, stable water is essential for fish health.

Fish live entirely within their aquatic environment, so changes in water quality can have a significant impact on their wellbeing.

Good aquarium management includes:

• Regular water testing
• Appropriate filtration
• Routine water changes
• Removing excess waste
• Avoiding overfeeding
• Maintaining suitable temperature
• Monitoring fish behaviour

Absolutely Everything's range includes products intended to help fishkeepers manage aquarium conditions and fish health.

🧪 Water Treatments & Conditioners

Water treatments can form an important part of aquarium maintenance, particularly when establishing an aquarium or managing specific water-quality requirements.

Products in this category may help with:

• Preparing aquarium water
• Conditioning water
• Supporting water quality
• Managing particular aquarium conditions

Always use water treatments according to the individual product instructions and the requirements of your particular aquarium.

🩺 Fish Health & Treatments

Even with good aquarium management, fish can sometimes experience health problems.

Absolutely Everything offers specialist products from Aquasonic designed to assist with particular fish-health concerns.

Fish-health products can include treatments for:

• External parasites
• Fish lice
• Gill flukes
• Anchor worms
• Fungal conditions
• Bacterial conditions
• Other specific fish-health problems

For example, Aquasonic Para-Gone is formulated to assist with the control of external parasites including fish lice, gill flukes and anchor worms in freshwater and saltwater aquariums. The product has specific usage restrictions and species considerations, so the label should always be followed carefully.

If you are unsure what is affecting your fish, seek advice from an experienced aquarium specialist or veterinarian rather than treating blindly.

🌿 Aquarium Plants & Environment

Plants and aquarium décor can make an aquarium more attractive while also helping create a more natural-looking environment.

Depending on the aquarium setup, fishkeepers may use:

• Live plants
• Artificial plants
• Rocks
• Caves
• Driftwood
• Decorative ornaments
• Hiding places

Providing suitable places for fish to explore and retreat can help create a more stimulating environment.

Always ensure aquarium décor is safe, free from sharp edges and appropriate for the species being kept.

💡 Aquarium Lighting

Lighting can enhance the appearance of an aquarium and is particularly important in planted aquariums.

Lighting can help:

• Display fish colours
• Showcase aquarium décor
• Support aquatic plants
• Establish a regular day/night cycle

Lighting requirements vary depending on the type of aquarium, plants and livestock.

🌡️ Aquarium Heating & Temperature

Many tropical fish require water maintained within an appropriate temperature range.

Aquarium heating equipment can help maintain consistent water temperature, particularly in cooler environments.

When selecting heating equipment, consider:

• Aquarium volume
• Required temperature
• Fish species
• Room temperature
• Heater wattage
• Safety features

A reliable aquarium thermometer is also useful for monitoring water temperature.

🐌 Products for Shrimp & Bottom-Dwelling Fish

Not all aquarium inhabitants feed in the same way.

Some fish and aquatic animals spend much of their time near the bottom of the aquarium and benefit from appropriately formulated sinking foods.

Absolutely Everything stocks products such as Sera Shrimp Granules, Pleco Chips, Spirulina Tabs and Sera Vipachips Tropical Wafers, as well as Hikari Sinking Wafers.

These products provide options for fish and aquatic animals with different feeding behaviours.

🐠 Products for Different Types of Aquariums

Different fish have different requirements.

Tropical Aquariums

Typically require appropriate tropical fish food, filtration, heating, water maintenance and suitable décor.

Goldfish Aquariums

Require suitable goldfish nutrition, effective filtration and sufficient water volume.

Community Aquariums

Need careful consideration of compatible species, feeding requirements, filtration and available swimming space.

Marine Aquariums

Require specialised equipment and careful management of salinity, water quality, filtration and livestock compatibility.

Planted Aquariums

Require additional consideration of lighting, plant nutrition, substrate, water quality and plant-compatible livestock.

🧽 Aquarium Cleaning & Maintenance

Regular maintenance is essential to keeping an aquarium healthy.

Typical maintenance tasks include:

• Removing uneaten food
• Removing waste
• Cleaning aquarium glass
• Checking filter operation
• Maintaining filter media
• Testing water
• Performing appropriate water changes
• Checking temperature
• Inspecting fish for unusual behaviour or appearance

A maintenance routine makes it easier to identify problems before they become serious.

🐣 Setting Up a New Aquarium

If you're setting up an aquarium for the first time, start with the basics.

Typical essentials include:

• Aquarium
• Appropriate filter
• Heater where required
• Thermometer
• Lighting
• Appropriate fish food
• Water-conditioning products where required
• Gravel or suitable substrate
• Plants and décor
• Water-testing equipment
• Fish net
• Maintenance equipment

Before purchasing fish, make sure the aquarium is properly prepared and that the species you intend to keep are compatible with the planned environment.
