Welcome
YOU’LL SEE even more fresh faces on the pages of PFK
INSPIRATION
RED NOSE DAY
A Rummynose from Asia? It certainly is, but it isn’t the Rummynose that you’re used to.
The Sailfin of the Celebes
With a fin like a sail, a calm temperament, and a laid back attitude to spawning, you’ll wonder why you didn’t keep Celebes rainbowfish before.
A FISH BY ANY OTHER NAME
You don’t need to be a professional to name a fish, but it helps. Amateur ichthyologist Steve Grant explains how a fish goes from being unidentified to having a formal moniker.
Style yourself on botanicals
For a hobby obsessed with cleanliness, the idea of filling a tank with rotting matter is anathema. But that’s just what one aquatics pioneer is suggesting.
The trouble with CEPHALOPODS…
Who wouldn’t be excited about keeping an octopus? Alas, such a magnificent creature is a high demand animal with a short life. Richard Ross discusses.
‘Scaping through the years
How many lives does a professional aquascaper’s tank get? George Farmer talks us through the history of his workhorse.
An ichthyologist’s choice!
We wanted to know the favourite fish of a world-renowned ichthyologist and author, so we asked Ad Konings to tell us his five best. Here’s the choice of a living legend himself.
LIONS ON THE PROWL
When lionfish escaped into Atlantic waters, few people realised what an eco-catastrophe they would become. Tim Smith looks at the history and control of an invasive hobbyist species.
More than snail munchers
From small to large and from cool to warm, loach expert Mark Duffill says there’s a species to suit almost any aquarist.
Catfish hunting in the Rio Piquiri
What goes in to a fish exploration? Ichthyologist Luiz Tencatt takes us hand-in-hand through a day in the life of a wilderness hunt.
REGULARS
Fishkeeping Answers
Got a fishkeeping question? PFK’s crack team of aquatics experts are on hand to answer whatever you need to know…
AUTHOR INTERVIEW: FISHES OF THE ORINOCO IN THE WILD
It could be the most anticipated fish book for 2020. Nathan Hill pins down author and photographer Ivan Mikolji to find out what’s going down in his latest project.
Tailpiece
While Covid has closed one avenue of editorial release, I refuse to put my own creative pursuits under lockdown or curfew. Here’s to deeper, more engaging content.
