Setting Up Your First Aquarium

Dr. Herbert R. Axelrod

Aquariums have been kept for thousands of years, and anything that lasts that long must have some attraction for people.  Aquarium-keeping is a popular pastime that brings many benefits to the to those having one.  

Aquariums are Educational - They bring together fishes and plants in a biologically balanced environment and challenge you to keep them alive and healthy and to breed them.

Aquariums are Relaxing - There is no better relaxation for the stessed person to lose themselves inside the glass walls as the Angelfish dart gracefully about.

Aquariums can be Profitable - The breeding of aquarium fish, especially rare ones can be a profitable aspect of the hobby.
