About Richard James

Welcome to Dose My Tank. I'm a passionate aquarium hobbyist, author, and educator with over a decade of experience in specialized fish and shrimp care.

I started this site because I saw too many keepers struggling with complex medication instructions and "handful of salt" advice that puts sensitive livestock at risk. My goal is to provide tools and clear calculation guidance that makes high-level aquarium care accessible to everyone.

Beyond this project, I run ShrimpKeeper.co.uk, where I dive deep into the world of invertebrates. I also share visual guides on my YouTube channel and have published a comprehensive book on the subject available on Amazon.
