MP Campbell's Dwarf Hamster Update

Good news! Finally got a reliable partner to ensure a healthy production of Campbell's dwarf hamster and hopefully in the near future, of Syrian hamsters as well.

Expect new cute and fluffy friends to be available in MAGS-Pets in the coming months. In the meantime, you better start planning the design of a hamster house/mansion as we are deciding on making a contest. Keep updated on the page posts to get more info.

For those who have questions regarding the care of these lovable balls of fur, please don't hesitate to leave us a PM.

Happy pet-keeping!

Why is regular water change important?

Should we be wasting our time doing regular water change? Is it really that important? The real question here is why shouldn't we? Doing regular water changes is the basic way for ensuring that the environment our aquatic pets live in is not only aesthetically pleasing to our eyes but most important of all, is fit for the general well-being of our aquatic pets and their surroundings. Some beginners in the aquatic pet hobby think that the only reason why we need to do water change is for water clarity. A clear water as a matter of fact doesn’t mean that your tank water is clean. It is just the same as a drinking water. Being clear doesn’t mean that it is fit for drinking. It could contain harmful chemical which are not visible to the naked eye but are unhealthy for you. Filtration systems especially those high-end expensive types can help keep the tank environment in optimal condition but this doesn't mean that we no longer need to do water changes in our tank.

DIY Anubias Trickle Farm

Been planning to setup a trickle type growbed for growing anubias emersed so we decided to do a little setup to test if the anubias will grow better in such environment before any larger scale projects. Reusing some PVC , a meter of garden hose, an old water pump we had lying around and some nylon to hang the finished trickle pipe, we got to work. After setting it up in an old tub we had and plugging the water pump to the outlet, the rain shower noise that the trickle setup made excited the nearby budgerigars. Hoping for the anubias to do well so we can work on a larger scaled trickle farm setup on the spacious area we have at the rooftop of our current building. A solar powered pump would be great to go with such setup, especially in sunny areas. Propagation of duckweeds in the pond below that captures and returns water to the trickle pipes can be used to provide goldfish and koi with fresh greens every other day as with the right conditions, duckweeds can multiply pr...
