Deciding on a salt water or freshwater aquarium is often the first step. As a general rule fresh water set ups are easier to maintain than saltwater equivalents and are often also less expensive and better for beginners to learn. Salt water aquariums tend to require more equipment to run correctly and can involve more complex elements such as living corals, whereas freshwater aquariums require little more than a simple tank, a good filtration system for a fish only environment. Speak to one our resident fish experts if you are unsure about which tank is best for you or if require specific information relating to specific fish and aquarium types.
