HPA

HPA or High Place of Acqua is simply another japanese aquarium blog...



It contains a series of photos, to say, at least relaxing of blogger's
aquarium and comments on various aquarium accessories available on the Japanese market.
Simple in the layout but have to be seen.

GAEM

GAEM web site is one of first italian sites that I met on the web when I started looking for news on aquariums.

Inserisci link

I think everibody in Italy knows it but You must have in in your bookmarks.
It contains articles that I consider fundamental. Some have a some years of life but are like if they were written yesterday.

Overall I would like to highlight "Come far crescere bene le piante d'acquario" ("How to grow good plants aquarium") by Dr. Walter Peris and "Le piante e la luce" ("Plants and the light") by Maurizio Vendramini ...

Little signs of life

I think that every aquarium keeper has happened, sooner or later, to see, at least once, small signs of life moving in water without being able to identify him. I have found at least 3 web sites that can help you find out what you face ...

The first iis a section of Microscopy UK. Here we can find a section named "Pond Life Identification Kit" . From a drawings menu you are driven link by link to specific articles on the identified specie .


The second is a personal site of an Italian hobbyist named Luciana Bartolini. The section "Insetti e larve d'acqua" ("Water Insects and larvae ") contains some detailed pictures of various kinds of these animals.



The third site is a small collection of pictures at http://pot.potorti.it/acquari/animaletti/.
Only few photos, but very useful ...

Discus and Angelfish

This time the links for two Italian sites dedicated to most remarkable freshwater aquarium fishes: Discus and Angelfish.

On
Italian Angelfish web site you can find everything you might need to identify and breed your Angelfish. The site is monothematic and fairly complete.




Mondo Discus is a wider site translated into several languages and with sections on other species in addition to the discus. There are also some articles more general, but still valid, on aquariums, and aquatic plants.
