I subscribe to both Tropical Fish Hobbyist and Aquarium Fish Magazine.

IMO Aquarium Fish is a bit more advanced. Often times LFS and the chain pets stores carry either or both, maybe buy an issue or two, see which you like better.

Good luck

I prefer Tropical Fish Hobbyist, but I'll warn you that it contains quite a bit of marine coverage. If you're looking for strictly freshwater information and nothing else, TFH isn't for you. Freshwater and saltwater content is about a 50/50 ratio.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

cjp,

I, just like a few others on here, have a subscription to both, TFH and Aquarium Fish Magazine. To be honest, TFH is the much better magazine and Aquarium Fish Magazine is a nice addition to it.

If I would have to drop one subscription, there would be no doubt in my mind which one that would be.

Hope this helps,

Ingo

PS: If you find another magazine that sounds interesting, please keep us posted as I cannot get enough to read
