Phew…2014 is almost over. And while it has been a fun year, it has also been an exhausting one. But, we made it, and we can look forward to the brand new adventures that await for us in 2015.

We’re not saying the A150 was incapable by any means. by AquaNerd | Dec 5, 2014 | Fish, Science, Tanks
The helfrichi firefish is often considered to be the most beautiful of the firefish gobies, and we tend to agree with that notion. Of course, being the most beautiful, this fish is highly sought after, with a high price tag to match.

One of my personal favorite fish in such large quantities…it was awesome. by gmavrakis | Dec 2, 2014 | Corals, Fish, MACNA, Opinion, Science, Tanks
