About QuinnMere

QuinnMere is a Singapore-registered editorial archive focused exclusively on tropical freshwater aquarium fishkeeping. The site covers species identification, care references, equipment notes, and information about the local ornamental fish retail sector.

Background

Singapore has been a significant node in the global ornamental fish trade since the 1960s, when the country's tropical climate and geographic position made it a natural base for breeding and exporting freshwater species. The local hobbyist community grew alongside this industry, accumulating practical knowledge specific to keeping fish in year-round warmth, treated municipal water, and the compact living spaces typical of HDB flats.

QuinnMere was established to consolidate scattered reference material on these topics into a single, well-maintained archive. The content draws on publicly available research, verified information from experienced local fishkeepers, and established ichthyological references.

Editorial Approach

All content on this site is written and reviewed to meet the following standards:

• Species information is cross-referenced with FishBase and SeriouslyFish for accuracy on taxonomy, distribution, and care parameters.
• Local shop and equipment references reflect conditions observable at the time of writing and are updated periodically.
• Temperature, pH, and other water parameter data are presented for Singapore's specific tap water conditions unless otherwise noted.
• No commercial affiliations influence content. Shop listings are based on longevity and community standing, not paid placement.
