Pet Fish Aquarium Shops in Singapore for Fish Enthusiasts - Sassy Mama Singapore

Family Life

Looking for a pet that's not as high maintenance? Why not get the kiddos some cute fish? Check out these fish aquarium shops in Singapore to get started!

Have the kiddos been bugging you for a pet of their own? If you're reluctant to deal with fur and feathers, then perhaps keeping fish as pets may be a great start. In fact, studies show that having a fish aquarium at home has been proven to be great for your child's mental health, as it promotes calmness, and can reduce stress and anxiety. And because fish are relatively low maintenance, it's easier to teach your child all about responsible pet ownership. But before you scour through fish aquarium shops in Singapore (hint: we've rounded up some awesome aquatic pet and aquarium shops below!), consider these easy-to-handle breeds to get, especially if you've never owned fish before.

  • Guppies or Neon Tetras: Both of these colourful fish species are captivating and don't grow into very large sizes. They also swim and thrive in bigger shoals, so it's easy to keep a full fish tank in smaller homes or spaces.
  • Goldfish: This bright orange fish needs no introduction, and are quite easy to care for, which is why it's such a great starter fish for children. All you'll need is a small fish tank and a filter (they poop regularly, and the filter will keep things clean).
  • Betta fish: Also known as fighting fish (simply because they tend to fight a fair bit), betta fish are the easiest to maintain, making them fab for younger children and toddlers. All you need is one fish – if you want two, make sure one is female and the other is male! – and a jelly jar with a bit of aquatic plants. Feed them regularly and watch them swim!
  • Danio: A torpedo-shaped fish that's from the minnow family, danio fishes are hardy and don't need water filtration. Just change the water once or twice a week! How's that for easy peasy?
