Biochemic Tissue Salts
Diploma Course
"You can trace every
sickness, every disease and
every ailment to a mineral
deficiency." Dr. Linus
Pauling, winner of two Nobel
Prizes. This statement is not
at all surprising if one looks
at the work done by Dr.
Schuessler on cell salts in
the 1850's. He found that
the ability of the body to
utilise nutritional material is
impaired when there is a
tissue salt deficiency. He
also concluded that if the
body became deficient in
these essential minerals,
the deficiency caused an
abnormal or diseased
condition. To Dr. Schuessler,
a symptom was merely a
distress signal, warning that
a body constituent was
missing and when restored,
the body condition returns to
normal. This safe,
easy-to-use system is a
MUST for all therapists and
those with an interest in this
subject.

    Basic Fish Anatomy

Basic anatomy of a fish can teach various characteristics to aquarists, as these normally are
according to their habitat. Different species sport different characteristics.

Fish anatomy centers on:

Body Shape

This determines the normal living environment of fish. This fish can live better in moving
waters while the tall and laterally compressed species adapt better to slow-moving waters.
Fish living on water surfaces have a flat back with an upturned mouth. Fish living at sea or on
water bottoms have flat bellies with different swim bladders that allow them to hop instead
of swimming at the bottom.

Head

The location of the fish’s mouth indicates its feeding habits. A normal fish mouth is terminal
and it feeds mid-water. Surface feeding fish have an upturned mouth for feeding on insects.
Bottom feeding fish have special tactile organs and barbells for locating food within muddy
waters. Some also have a suction cup to pull in small invertebrates. Omnivorous fish have
small mouths while predatory fish have large mouths.

Fins

The fins of the fish help them move. Fish with forked fins are regular fast-swimmers while
those with rounded fins can move fast. Fish bred in aquariums have long, drawn out fins.
Anal fins help stabilize movements while swimming.

Body Color

The body color of a fish denotes its health. Some fish can alter their colors while some
change colors at night. Colors receive additional enhancement during the spawning period.
Favorable water conditions, a choice of a variety of foods, and compatibility with mates within
an aquarium bring out the best colors in fish.

Gills

Gills are the main respiratory organ of fish. Gills are sometimes useful for trapping prey within
the mouth cavity. Freshwater fish excrete water through their gills to maintain body salt
concentration.

Swim Bladder

The swim bladder in fish contains air and allows fish to swim without sinking or floating. This
allows fish to sleep in mid-water. Some species have a special swim bladder, which take in
oxygen and help in breathing.

Lateral Line

The lateral line located under the scales consists of a series of fluid-filled ducts to pick up
vibrations from the water. These vibrations indicate to fish about predators, presence of
food, and allow easier navigation.
 
 
DO you like what you have just read?  The above is an extract from the ebook Tropical
Freshwater Fish Aquarium.
 
Have you ever wished you could wave a magic wand and transform the goldfish bowl
you had as a child into an aquatic wonderland?

Or, maybe your last vacation included a visit to Sea Word and you delighted in the
squeals of laughter from your kids and promised them their own miniature version right
in your own home.

Welcome,

Whatever your reasons for being here it's a sure bet that you are looking for the opportunity
to create a vision of "Finding Nemo" habitat right in your own home.  A noble idea surely, but
if you are caught in a time warp you need to understand that when it comes to creating an
aquarium, as the saying goes, "they've come a long way baby!"

First things first.  You do realize that you gotta' have a plan, right?  You know, kind of like
plan your work and work your plan?  Before you run off to the pet store and start scooping
up fish in a net you need to learn a little bit more about "fish keeping."

"Fish keeping?"  Yep,  that's right, "fish keeping."  Or, in a more eloquent description,
"keeper of fish."  Did you know that "fish keeping" is actually dated as far back as medieval
times?  Well it's true.  But don't worry, you don't have to build your aquarium as large as a
moat.

If any of this is striking a chord within, you need some help before you embark on your "fish
keeping" adventure and we highly recommend you acquire a copy of Your Guide to Tropical
Freshwater Fish Aquariums.  It's definitely just what the doctor ordered for "fish keeping
101."

First things first.  Here's a little sample of what you'll find inside of the 100+ fishy pages:

  • Basic Fish Anatomy - learn to distinguish between the different types by their body
    configuration.

  • Planning Your Aquarium - what size do you require, is there any design you find more
    favorable,  where you should place it and do you need an aquarium stand?

  • Furnishing your aquarium - first the basics, light, heat, filter

  • Then comes the fun stuff - how to select gravel, plants and other interior design
    elements  and accessories.

  • Water quality is very important - learn how to "keep it clean."

  • Adding the fish - learn all about the most popular tropical freshwater fish - how many
    you should buy considering the tank size, should you have more than one species and
    how and where to buy your fish.

  • Selecting aquatic plants for your aquarium and how to care for them to insure
    longevity.

  • Do you want to add non-fish species like snails, shrimp or crab?

  • Feeding your fish - what to feed and when.

  • Be on the alert for disease - what to watch for and how to treat them.

  • How to use antibiotics to control disease.

  • Are medicated foods the answer?

  • Cleaning your freshwater fish aquarium.

  • Try your hand at breeding!

Does it look like a lot of work?  Make it a family project.  When you're having fun, there is no
such thing as work!

having your own copy of Your Guide to Tropical Freshwater Fish Aquariums is just what you
need to lay out your plans accordingly.

know to launch that new hobby.

some pretty fish but that is the worse thing you could do at this stage!  Get some help and
plan your project from start to finish and you are assured of having a beautiful aesthetic
addition to you home.
