Tropical Fish

[afairclough]

If an equestrian is somebody who is interested in horses what is the equivalent name for somebody who is interested in tropical fish?

[drwhofan]

I could be wrong but I think I've heard them called "aquarists".

Aquarian?
Fishist?

I'm sure someone can think of somthing better than this?

[afairclough]

Thanks for that looked it up and you are correct.

I'm sure the answers above are perfectly correct. but - as equestrian is based on the Latin word for 'horse'...ie equus...then the fishy person might also be based on the Latin word for 'fish' rather than just 'water'...ie piscis. How about 'piscicultiralist'?

Great Quiz, so how about .....

Aquapisct !

I'm tempted to write that you cant get 'pist' on 'aqua'...oops, I just have!
