Want to know how to keep a marine aquarium? Marine aquaria are the fastest-growing area of fishkeeping – and for good reason. The fish are colourful, the corals unique, and much of the life is quite unlike anything you find in freshwater.
We’ve put together a basic guide overseeing some of the key areas that a newcomer needs to know about. From hardware essentials to feeding a coral, we hope you’ll find something in these pages that will help you on your journey to becoming a ‘salty’ fishkeeper.
