WetElbows

Welcome to Wet Elbows Aquatics—where aquariums bring families together.

I’m Paul “Wet Elbows” Martin. I’ve been keeping fish for over 50 years and have bred hundreds along the way—from tiny tetras to colorful cichlids. Now, my goal is simple: help more families discover the fun, science, and stories waiting in a home aquarium.
Once we get started on this channel, I'm hoping you'll find:

Friendly guidance for beginners and parents who want to start a tank the right way

Kid-friendly explanations of aquarium science (because even the big words can be fun when explained simply)

Stories and insights from my upcoming book The Family Aquarium and the Aqua Defenders series

No jargon. No judgment. Just practical advice, plenty of encouragement, and maybe a few soaked sleeves along the way.
