What these terms cover
These terms apply to the Worlds Fish website and any content, images, text, and features it contains. By using the site you accept them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Content and copyright
All original articles, text, and design on Worlds Fish are the property of Worlds Fish unless stated otherwise, and are protected by copyright. You may read, share, and link to our articles freely, and quote short passages with clear attribution to this site. Republishing full articles, scraping the site at scale, or using our content to train models without permission is not allowed. Contact us to ask about reuse.
Photographs
Many photographs in our articles are from Wikimedia Commons and remain the property of their authors, used under the terms of their respective licenses. Credits and license details are listed in each article’s companion README where applicable. Trademarks and brand names mentioned on the site belong to their owners.
Using our advice
Our articles share experience, not guarantees. Fishkeeping involves living animals, water, and electricity: conditions vary, fish are individuals, and mistakes happen. The information on this site is provided “as is” and without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Worlds Fish is not liable for any loss, injury, or damage arising from your use of the information here. Start slow, research your specific fish, and consult a veterinarian when a medical problem arises.
External links
The site links to external websites we find useful. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or practices. A link is not an endorsement of everything on the linked page.
Reader conduct
The blog uses contact forms and, where available, comments. Keep messages respectful and relevant. We may remove content that is abusive, illegal, or off-topic, and we may refuse service to repeat offenders. Do not use the contact forms to send spam, malware, or content that violates any law.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the site changes. The “last updated” date above reflects the current version, and continued use of the site after changes means you accept the new terms.
