Two types of water
There are two main types of aquariums: marine and freshwater. Marine aquariums use saltwater and host ocean species like corals and marine fish. Freshwater aquariums, on the other hand, use non-salty water and are home to fish and plants from rivers and lakes. Each type offers a unique experience and requires different levels of care.

Marine aquarium
A marine aquarium is a saltwater tank that houses marine fish, corals, and other ocean-dwelling organisms. It replicates a natural ocean environment and typically requires more advanced care than a freshwater aquarium.

Freshwater aquarium
A freshwater aquarium is a tank filled with non-salty water that contains freshwater fish, plants, and other aquatic life. It mimics rivers or lakes and is generally easier to maintain than a marine aquarium.

Setting Up Your First Aquarium: Tips for Beginners
1. Choose the Right Location
Place your aquarium somewhere comfortable and easy to observe.
Make sure it’s away from direct sunlight to prevent algae growth and temperature fluctuations.2. Plan Ahead: What Will You Keep?
Think about the fish and aquatic life you want to keep.
This will help you choose the right tank size. A helpful rule for beginners: when in doubt, go for a larger aquarium — it’s easier to maintain and more stable in the long run.3. Start Small and Slow
When setting up your aquarium, begin with just a few fish.
Add beneficial bacteria to kick-start the biological filtration process.
During the first few weeks, use a water test kit to monitor NO2 (nitrite) and NO3 (nitrate) levels daily. This helps ensure a safe and healthy environment as the aquarium stabilizes.
