Disclaimer

Tankwise is general information for hobbyists. Please read these limits before acting on it.

General information only

The content on Tankwise is provided for general information about freshwater aquariums. It is written for a broad audience and cannot account for your exact tank, water parameters, stocking or animals.

Not veterinary advice

Our fish-health articles describe general observation, prevention and care. They are not veterinary advice and cannot diagnose a specific animal. If a fish is unwell, or if illness persists, seek advice from a qualified aquatic veterinarian or an experienced local society.

No guarantee of results

Aquarium outcomes depend on water chemistry, temperature, stocking, filtration and many other variables. Following a guide does not guarantee a particular result.

Safety and welfare

Always prioritise the welfare of your animals. If advice conflicts with the needs of your livestock, or with qualified professional guidance, follow the professional guidance.

External sources

We reference third-party sources for transparency. Their content and accuracy are their own responsibility.
