About Me

Hey! Welcome to my Blog. 🙂

I am Nadine and I truly find pet fish very interesting creatures that are worthy of our attention.

There are thousands of different kinds of fish and I think my curiosity is driving me to do more research about pet fish to learn new stuff about them.

I used to have a goldfish named amber when I was a child but I did not know enough to take care of it back then.

Now that I know, I insist on sharing my knowledge with pet fish enthusiasts like you! You can contact me here.
