Freshwater algae can be controlled in a number of ways. The simplest is of course to invest in an algae eating fish, such as a pleco or an otocinclus. For small tanks, algae eating shrimp, such as cherry shrimp, are a popular option.

This month is all about luck, so we want to highlight a fish that is considered lucky by some: The Goldfish! These highly underrated aquarium fish are the most domesticated of all our pet fish. Goldfish have charming personalities, and have been known to recognize their owners and beg for food. They are large growing, with fantastic colors, such as orange, red, white, and yellow. Several types of goldfish have been bred to have unique ornamentation, such as split tails, large crowns, and telescope eyes. Goldfish are popular for Feng Shui aquariums, as they are considered a symbol of wealth.
