Perfecto Aquarium Stands

As Ive written before Cleanliness is not sterility. Cleaning, vacuuming, bleaching ornaments too much, too soon disrupts/destroys needed bacterial cultures. Dont be too fastidious about cleaning all your system at once; you want good, strong beneficial microbe populations living in and on the "hard" surfaces in your system.

About Testing for Biological Filtration:

You will need test kits for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate to measure the concentration of these materials as your system establishes its cycling. There is a large range in accuracy and precision of such kits. Good inexpensive ones are available from such companies as Salifert and Aquarium Systems. For folks who desire deluxe models, look to Hach or LaMotte brands. Further, you would be wise to develop a permanent notebook

At first, the fry cannot swim, but they squirm "en masse" on the rock, living off the egg sac, for about 4 days. The parents constantly attend to their young at this time. Feeding these fry is easier than other breeds, because of the baby Oscars relatively large size. A good and simple plan is to crush regular processed flake food in your fingers, and just drop it in. Turn off filtration d

I recommend you to use as big a tank as you can for your gar, and I wouldnt recommend keeping gars in an aquarium smaller than 200 Gallon/720 L. And that should be considered a minimum; a 400 gallon/1400 L tank is preferable.

The tank should be decorated in accordance with gar behaviour. Gars are ambush predators, and as such th

Intervention methods by aquarists; water changes, chemical filtrants, sped-up complete biological cycling (wet-dry filtration, algal scrubbers, abundant, vigorous live rock, macro-algae) can be brought into play to successfully limit the "bottle-neck" accumulation of nitrate ("8").

Expediency and Rates of Reaction:

Depending on such factors as the physical format of food/wastes provided, temperature, bacteria population dynamics, and oxygen supply, biological filtration in your system can be a forgotten breeze or an unending nightmare.

Daphnia For The Aquarium

Daphnia are a great food source for both young and adult aquarium fish, you could catch them with a net in a pond, but their's a risk of bringing in parasites. I just found an article about growing daphnia yourself, nice read for the real tinkers out there :-)
