Set Salt Water Fish Aquarium

Please also remember to resist buying species that you cannot presently house humanely on the mere hope or expectation of a larger aquarium in time. Too many large species stunt and die prematurely in captivity for having been kept in undersized tanks. Some dreadful myths t

They are designed to run 24/7. This constant on and off can damage or destroy some powerheads. I would only use Aquarium Systems or Hagen powerheads for this type of usage. Even such, occasionally these powerheads will make a brief chattering noise when first turned on. This can be annoying to some individuals, so be aware. Check out this link for more:

Hydor Flo Rotating Deflector:

This is another wavemaker that I like, although it functions in a completely different manner than the Aquarium Systems Natural Wave. This device is an add-on feature to a powerhead

Your betta should go for the food right away, but if not, watch where the food sinks, and what the betta does. If more than 15 min he has not eaten the food yet, remove the food. Never let the water go cloudy. If it is already, then change it, as cloudy water will threaten your bettas health. N

A ballast (transformer) is used to reduce the voltage that is used to power the bulbs. The ends of the lamp are electrodes or filaments through which electricity passes from each end of the lamp. The electrical current excites the rare-earth phosphors inside the lamp which then "fluoresce" or glow.

Fluorescent lighting is very efficient compared to incandescent lighting. It produces more light per watt and far less heat and so is ideal for gener

They work the same way as a fluorescent tube but the surface area of the tube has been increased slightly and more phosphors added. They require more electricity than regular fluorescents but the payoff is huge! They produce nearly four times the light-output per watt than regular fluorescents and in our experience, degrade slower and last longer. They come close to the output of metal halide bulbs with relatively-precise color temperature production, though metal halide bulbs produce a far bro

African Cichlid Care

Refugium reverse photo period, could it actually fuel daytime algae?
I was just reading some articles about PH and whatnot (Randy Holmes Farley stuff) and started to think about CO2. If algae gives off Co2 at night time when it isn't photosynthesizing, then the chaeto ball in my fuge is doing just that during the day when the fuge light is off and the display light is on .. thus, helping to fuel algae in my display tank! Am I wrong? Or is it too insignifica.
