Aquascaping Tips for Beginners🌿

👉 Start with your hardscape — that’s your rocks, wood, or any larger decorations. Place these first to shape the layout.

👉 Add your substrate (gravel or soil) around them.

👉 Plant tall plants at the back and short ones at the front so you can see everything clearly.

👉 Always leave open swimming space for your fish — they’ll appreciate it!

Top tip: Use the ‘rule of thirds’ 📏 — imagine your tank divided into a grid of 3 equal parts across and down. Place your main rocks or plants where the lines meet, not just in the center. It makes the layout feel more natural and pleasing to the eye.

Thinking about adding a pleco to your aquarium? These hardy, bottom-dwelling fish are famous for munching on algae and keeping tank surfaces clean🍃

They come in loads of sizes and types — from tiny Bristlenose Plecos to big beauties like Common Plecos (who need a lot more space as they grow).

Top tips for pleco care:
✅ Make sure you’ve got enough room — some get very big!
✅ Add hiding spots and driftwood for them to graze on
✅ Supplement their diet with algae wafers and veggies like cucumber

Brilliant for tropical setups and a real character to watch as they go about their business.

Who else loves their pleco? 👋

Our Story

Interpet was founded in the UK by Dr Neville Carrington, a British chemist who entered the business world through his love of fish keeping. Neville’s passion for fish keeping stemmed from his father, O.L. Carrington, who had been an avid fish keeper since the 1930s. In the early 1950s a suggestion was made to Neville and his father – why not formulate a liquid food for fish?

Neville, who was studying towards a pharmaceutical degree at the time, worked out a formula during a family holiday. As soon as he returned home, production began inside the garden shed in a washing boiler, using equipment Neville had designed and made himself. The liquid fish food, now known as Liquifry was put into milk churns and filled either above his Father’s pharmacy or, during busy times, in the garage! In creating the first range of liquid fish food, Interpet Ltd was born.

In 2004 Central Garden and Pet one of the largest pet and garden companies in the world added Interpet to their family of brands.
