Freshwater Aquarium Microbiome

Introduction

Microbiomes, the community of microorganisms living together in particular habitats, are vital for maintaining ecological balance. The habitat hosting the microbial communities can be anything from the gastrointestinal tract of a cow to soils of the land... The fish themselves oftentimes possess more microbial cells than fish cells in their bodies (2)
