The use of aquarium supplements allows us to make sure the tropical fish, invertebrates, plants and macro algae in our aquariums are receiving proper nutrition.

Freshwater fish obtain most of their nutrients from the food they eat. Freshwater fish do not drink water, whereas saltwater fish do.

Am I wrong? Or is it too insignifi.
