The Biggest Lie Aquarist Tell People Busting myths in the aquarium world is our specialty. You've likely heard the old wives' tale that fish only grow to the size of their aquarium. This is a fallacy, a fishy fib if you will. In reality, confining a fish that's meant to grow 8 to 10 inches in a small 10 or 20 gallon aquarium doesn't stunt its growth, it just doesn't provide enough room. It's like trying to grow a mighty oak in a tiny pot. So, let's debunk this myth once and for all: your fish's growth isn't determined by the size of your aquarium. It's about providing the right environment for them to thrive. Share this video if you learned something new about fish growth and aquarium sizes! #AquariumMyths #FishCare #AquariumSizeMatters

Never Buy These 3 Fish Part 2 Snakeheads, piranhas, and channel catfish - these are the three fish you might want to reconsider for your aquarium. Snakeheads, despite their beauty, are known for their aggressive nature and invasive tendencies. They're not the ideal tropical fish for a peaceful aquarium environment. Piranhas, although popular in the Midwest, are illegal in some places. Their reputation precedes them, and it's not for being friendly. Lastly, the channel catfish. A personal anecdote - as a kid, I bought one from Pier 1 Imports, only to watch it grow and consume everything in my aquarium. Remember, a harmonious aquarium is a happy aquarium.

Never Buy These 3 Fish Did you know that Moorish Idols, those vibrant, zebra-striped swimmers, are better left in the ocean? Despite their allure, they struggle to thrive in aquariums.

🦞 Destination – adult. Unlike many other Lobster species that rely on large, sharp claws to defend themselves, the adult Tropical Rock Lobster uses its protruding eyes and long antennae to detect a threat, using the horns behind the eyes and short spines to defend itself and stay safe. Tropical Rock Lobsters don't start life as little miniature dragon-like warriors! Instead, in their phyllosoma stage, they are fragile larvae, almost transparent and vulnerable – at the mercy of the tides and currents that carry them, bearing no resemblance to the fierce-looking "Flower Dragons" they become. And not every lobster makes it through. The journey from the starting point to the finish can often seem impossible. Where we start is quite often very different to where we end up, sometimes frustrating, sometimes intriguing and sometimes long and complicated… It’s hard not to ask the question, "Is this challenging journey worth the destination?" At Ornatas, we are reminded every day of this winding road with many unexpected turns. As a research company, we are always testing the boundaries of knowledge, knowing that where we start doesn’t always have a clear path to where we will finish up, and it is our privilege to work with the endlessly fascinating Tropical Rock Lobster. These spectacularly beautiful animals have an incredibly complex life cycle, which never ceases to amaze us as we learn more about providing the right conditions to help them progress from one stage to the next. #rocklobster #lobsterfacts #Ornatas #aquaculture #sustainable #TropicalRockLobster #research
