Gastropoda
I have already proposed sometimes link to sites that explain how to identify different types of snails that infest / populate the aquarium.
Mondo Gasteropodi forum is dedicated to those who want to raise them in good health.
Like any respectable forum (in addition to fans' discussions) it is filled with identification cards and articles ...

Invertebrates again
An interesting page to get information on invertebrates that live in our aquarium and recognize them...
the page name is Summary of the Domain of Ampullariidae but also deals with other species with information available in English, French and Spanish.

Aristocratama
I do not like to advertise commercial sites unless they have something useful / interesting to offer.
Aristocratama is a freshwater invertebrates web shop with a list of species so big to justify to be mentioned.

Aquarium and microscopy
A different and perhaps unique whay to watch your aquarium: through the microscope lens.
Acquariofilia e Microscopia Ottica site (in italian only) offers a series of articles that explain how to observe your aquarium by microscope. For those not interested in using this tool, however, I recommend to read articles on algae and aquatic plants ... you will find the answers to many questions about why and how certain phenomena occour...
offre una serie nutrita di articoli che spiegano come osservare il proprio acquario al microscopio. Per chi non è interessato all'uso di questo strumento consiglio comunque la lettura degli articoli sulle alghe e sulle piante d'acquario... vi troverete la risposta a molte domande sul perchè e sul come di certi fenomeni...

Crabs and shrimps
Two nice sites on invertebrates that live in our aquarium:
The first www.invertebrati.info is an italian site about shrimp, crabs, snails and other invertebrates can populate our aquariums.
It contains many in-depth articles (very good that on shrimp's anatomy), cards for the recognition of animals, and some magnificent pictures galleries.
Second one Crusta 10 is a German site (also in English), mainly dedicated to crabs, shrimps and crayfish.
It has a more scientific approach and less amateur than the previous. Lists many articles and publications on these animals and even here there are cards for identification / classification and photo galleries.
The two sites are complementary with no overlap and are very definitely two links to keep handy for fans.

A magazine...
This time I want to highlight a website really different from those I'm used to.
Underwater photography is a bimonthly magazine distributed for free by this site and is completely dedicated to underwater photography and tools needed to achieve it.
For fans of this art this is definitely a must.

Sekai scaping
This is a website (in portoguese) mainly dedicated to aquascaping.
It highlights than other sites because its articles are quite detailed and show the sources of information (which is not to be underestimated).
I recommend everyone to read two articles in particular:
'Tetra Neon Cardinal: Equívocos e Realidade' and
'Os males da introdução de espécies exóticas em ambientes aquáticos'

Nature Aquarium blog
Despite it's english title this is a blog blog written from italian aquascaper Enrico Serena.
In his blog Enrico show us both the tanks that has attended, with excellent results, at various international contests and his new current projects.
The value of this blog, in my opinion, are the pictures that Enrico is able to achieve with an unmatched balance of colors.
