Hi, I’m The Tank Lady — and I’m here to make aquarium care approachable, not overwhelming.

With years of hands-on experience in both freshwater and saltwater tanks, I’ve learned that thriving aquariums don’t require perfection — just a little consistency, curiosity, and care. I started this site to share down-to-earth advice that actually works for real people, real tanks, and real budgets.

Whether you’re cycling your first tank, testing your water, trimming plants, or figuring out which filter won’t drive you nuts, I’m here to help. You’ll find guides, gear recommendations, simple maintenance routines, and a healthy dose of fishy encouragement.

i believe anyone can keep a beautiful, healthy tank — and I’d love to help you build yours.

🐠 You bring the fish, I’ll bring the friendly advice.

Have a question?

Looking for answers, send me a note, I’ll be glad to help.
