The Discus Book 3rd Edition - Now is the Time!

The Discus Book Third Edition has been at the very top of my "To Do List" for a very long time. But in an era of instant gratification and silver bullets, I honesty felt such a book would not be enjoyed, or appreciated, for it's in-depth understanding of this highly evolved and intelligent majestic species. Also, considering the detailed Science, as to why such an environment is created for successfully keeping the King of the Aquarium. And finally getting back to the actual biology of our time honoured and noble traditional pastime of Tropical Fish Keeping as a Hobbyist - Out just before Christmas of 2021!

Our Latest News!


The Canvas of Life Album - Out Now!

 Timing could not be better, as a revival continues to take place and evolve with current music lovers wanting to discover and hear great music from the past, especially the 1970's and 1980's. You will not be disappointed, when you hear this fantastic album produced in Pineapple Blue "True Sound." And so get ready for that special gig in your very own front room! Technically brilliant and loose, just how music use to be played, and traditionally recorded live in the English Countryside, and as the crow flies just a few miles outside of London. Played and performed for that true organic sound, where you hear the Bass and Strings working together, delivering a chorus of great sound that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and a drum beat that causes your neighbours windows to fall out! The Canvas of Life Album (Apple Music and iTunes) is Out Now! 

The World's Best Selling Book on Making Your Own Fish Food!

I must confess, I really did have a good feeling when writing this great book, and as a world's first!

Just think of it, a recipe book dedicated to tropical fish, showing "how to" make your very own "High Protein Super Foods" and saving tons of money. 

I started making fish food back in the 1980's, to get Discus in a healthy condition, so they would breed. This even included Wild species. 

I knew writing this book would be a great move to help other Aquarists. 

And with recipes in this book that is a real game changer for all tropical fish hobbyists and aquarists, so they too can have really happy, healthy, disease free tropical fish!
