A great site with information on all aspects of fishkeeping. It is a mirror site for thekrib.com

but I have found a couple wrongs in the how to set up an aquarium and adding fish section.
Table of contents

couple of plant sites

Tropica
PlantGeek :: View topic - Algae pictures
This is one a guy is doing on planted aqauriums, is alot of info here ans is still adding things to it, like the co2 section,
Jake’s Planted Aquarium Pages » Getting Started

and for those who ask
How long do these fish live?
