Meet Linda

Hi, I am Linda Strydom. I started breeding fancy goldfish in 2022 after buying my first aquarium. That first spawn showed me how little practical guidance existed for home breeders dealing with real tanks, real schedules, and real constraints.

Since then I have grown a small fishroom and documented what works in everyday setups. I focus on clear steps, gentle care, and the small details that make the biggest difference in hatch rates and fry survival.

What we focus on

  • Breeding setups that are simple to run and easy to clean.
  • Egg care and fry feeding routines that actually fit into home life.
  • Species guides for goldfish, bettas, snails, shrimp, and other community favorites.
  • Water quality and live food culture basics that keep tanks stable.

Why this site exists

Avocation 360 is here to bridge the gap between theory and real-life fishkeeping. The goal is to make breeding and care feel approachable, with guidance that respects both your fish and your time.
