Marine Aquarium Maintenance Guides

Please feel free to download our handy marine aquarium guides below. These free guides have been designed to help you with all that important – and sometimes challenging – aquarium maintenance. With expert advice on everything from tank lighting schedules and water parameters to fish compatibility within your tank, we’re here to give you all the support you need.

We also have a couple of easy-to-use calculators to help you calculate water volume with your aquariums, and to tell you how much live rock you need based on the water volume in your tank.
