Marine Aquarium
Maintaining a marine aquarium is a very arduous task. But tropical exotic fishes look marvelous inside marine aquariums in your living room. Saltwater tropical fishes are quite expensive and difficult to maintain. The water salinity must be perfect and the water must be absolutely clean as the fishes are prone to parasites and other diseases. The temperature of the water must be optimum for survival of the fishes. But the fishes are exquisitely colored and look marvelous and make every effort worthwhile. The fishes are either caught in the wild or bred in captivity. Mostly the latter as the former type is very expensive and difficult to own.

Fad, is it?
We have all seen pets, or owned one or more at some point in time. One of the particularly common types of pets was fish. Having an aquarium generally meant having a couple of goldfish, a few angel fishes, etc. Not anymore though.
Nowadays, the types of fish those themselves in aquariums aren't the common ones. The types of fish in today's aquariums are exotic species with a flurry of colors, strikingly shaped or even poisonous ones. These are species often found in tropical water bodies. They require a lot of attention if they are to survive out of their natural habitat. Water salinity and temperature needs to be properly maintained as well
