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.

ADA Italy

ADA Europe web site has gone and from its ashes the ADA Italy site was reborn.

You can find it at the address http://www.adaitaly.com/.
The whole graphics has gained a lot but the pages seem displaying too slow. Some tweaking may be required...

Shrimps

Shrimps presence in our aquariums is growing day by day so that some devote them entirely dedicated aquariums.
To knowing more on these pets I suggest three sites all in english:

The first is Shrimpfanatics.com, a blog with a lot of data sheets on various species...


The second is The shrimp farm. A commercial site with less data sheets than previous but with some articles on breding.


If You need more in ShrimpNow forum You can share everithing on shrimps with other fans of these pets.

Another magazine

Pratical fishkeeping is a british (paper) aquarium magazine.
It's site is, at least, full of articles, and news on fishes and aquarium world.

Connected to site are also a blog and a forum...

Aqua Botanic

Aqua Botanic is an online aquarium plants retailer.
This site has always had a section of articles, though not up to date, it is very rich and detailed.



I recommend everyone to read at least the article on Control of Algae Using Straw contained in the Science section...

Hagen

Hagen is a company that produces products for animals, which some time ago, was well known among aquarists for its aquariums lamps.

Their site is probably one of the least updated in the web and is very basic.
Between its pages, however, is a small jewel: four PDF numbers of the webzine "Nutrafin Aquatic News" .


After the 4 th issue, apparently, anything was published but you really has to take a chance to read both these works and the the basic guides available elsewhere in the site ...

Oliver Knott

Oliver Knott is a world wide famous aquarium designer/ acquascaper that for years maintained a photographic archive of his aquascapes:


A site that surely can be an excellent source of inspiration for any aquascaper.

Last year, thanks to his experience, has launched a website in English, French and German, for its business through which proposes a range of soils, plants for aquariums, he selected.

Aquamind laboratory

ADA is the most popular Japanese brand of aquariums and aquarium accessories. But beyond this reality exists in Japan, other small brands that produce real jewels; aquamind laboratory is one of these and like ADA sells its products through a website.


In addition to the shop on site there is the owner blog, that has evolved through three successive versions: the first was AM1, from the second (AM2) an image below, the third and last closed definitively on 10/16/2009.



Discussions on products and tanks of the owner is continuing on Twitter as shown on the home page of the site.

Tropica Aquarium Plants

Tropica is a major European grower and seller of aquatic plants, it' site is in my opinion one of the most useful for those involved in aquaplanting.


This website provides consultation for plants data, those informations are a landmark in this field.
Recently has become available an on-line electronic version of their catalog which alone is worth the time to visit the site.
Very interesting and in-depth articles also present.

ADA

ADA is mythical trademark in aquarium. Its founder Takashi Amano, the guru of nature aquarium philosophy, has its own personal website where you can admire his beautiful nature pictures.
Much more interesting (and inspiring) are pictures published in the galleries of both the European site ADA Europe



and in Japanese main site


where You can, also, find links to other ADA sites scattered throughout the various countries; lot of material including downloadable manuals about creation and maintenace of Nature Aquarium.
