As a responsible aquarist, you decide to do without fish that grow large, and you are not lucky with the small animals either! by Helmut Strutz from issue 2 of Korallenriff Magazin
Dr Anthony Gill has described / introduced the new genus name "Compsanthias" in Zootaxa and assigned it to Pseudanthias hawaiiensis and Pseudanthias ventralis. Both are now called Compsanthias hawaiiensis and Compsanthias ventralis.
If you have followed our magazine carefully, you will find an interesting article and interview on the subject of breeding in the July 2023 issue. We wanted to support this with a video. So we were at Claudia #ocellarisbande and her really great 1800 liter reef aquarium! The video is in German language.
Lyrefish in the aquarium - I have often seen budding aquarists standing in front of a dealer's tank and saying in amazement, "Look, they are so pretty and colourful! They were usually talking about mandarin lyrefish (lat. Synchiropus splendidus), which are among the most striking and colourful fish in coral reefs. From Issue 02 Coral Reef Magazine by Robert Baur
The well-known Dutch wholesaler DeJong Marinelife has successfully bred Synchiropus circularis. An accidental import of this rare species led to DeJong's spawning success. The top news :-)
Catching fish from the aquarium is anything but easy. Usually it can only be done with a trap. But even then, the fish you want to catch is usually the last to go in. Nyos has now come up with a new type of trap. Just watch the video we shot at the end of November. But we did it very quickly.

Keeping a frogfish requires a lot of experience, sensitivity, patience and time. In this guest article, Verena Wilms takes us into the world of frogfishes, a group of fish that is more likely to be a marginal phenomenon in marine aquaristics.
Sometimes the day comes when you have to part with a fish. Be it because it goes for corals, or because fish just don't get along with each other, or as in our case, that a fish is too big for the aquarium. This is especially noticeable in the case of doctors because of the restless behaviour that then occurs. The best way to deal with this is with a so-called fish trap. You can read about our experiences in the article and video.
Some people have waited a long time for it. Now it is finally here. The new book by Gerald Bassleer.
