Keeping an aquarium is a popular hobby.  Many people like the look of an aquarium in their home or office.  Other people are interested in fish.  Whatever the reason for deciding to set up an aquarium there are some basic things you should consider.

Firstly you should take a look around some aquatic shops to see what types of aquariums are out there.  You can choose between salt water and fresh water aquariums.  Be aware that fresh water is easier to maintain.  Once you have had a look around the aquatic shops make a list of the items you will need.  These fall into 3 categories – equipment, supplies and fish.

The type of tank depends to a large extent on the location or the room it will be in.  Look for the right size.  Once you have the tank then you will need associated equipment such as thermometers, lighting, covers and heaters.  Supplies come in the form of cleaning equipment, food and nets.  You will also have to decide on the types of fish you are going to keep and the amount.  It is a good idea to discuss this with the experts at your aquatic shop.
