Aquarium Coffee Tables

As the water cools, pond fish require less protein in their diet. When koi and goldfish are fed high-protein food in cool water, the excess protein is excreted as ammonia from the gills. The microscopic organisms that make up the biological filter (and consume ammonia) als

Depending on what type, size, and livestock you want to keep this is an easy to more difficult task.

As youll see under the 5) Operation: Setting Up a Marine Aquarium headings, fish only to fish & invertebrates, to full-blown reef systems have increasingly more demanding requirements for "cleanliness" (i.e. an absence of metabolites). Whereas all marine systems would have a functional protein skimmer, fish-only set-ups often get by with little more than an air-powered undergravel filter and/or some outside power filtration.

Truth be told, most tanks will be served very well with unrestricted outlets that merely have swiveling 45-degree elbows.

Nonetheless, some aquarists will have more discriminating preferences and some corals certainly have more demanding needs regarding water flow. This is especially true in display with large or fast growing corals that have a monthly need for modificati

Even with the smaller species you are still going to need a rather large aquarium. The tropical gar also is possible to keep in aquariums as it doesnt grow as large; however this species is very hard to find. The Cuban gar is a red-list endangered species and shouldnt be kept even if you somehow find one.

In aquariums gars are quite demanding and require a lot of space and clean water. 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 sh

This prefilter design greatly reduces the chances of the siphon action breaking, either from collected air or when the filter pump stops.

Wet-Dry Filters: Wet-dry filters are typically rectangular acrylic or glass reservoirs that sit below the aquarium. Most are divided into two basic sections, the "wet-dry" chamber and the "sump." Some wet-dry filter models may also have additional sections or chambers for in-sump protein skimmers, de-nitrification systems, canister filters or for pre-filtration of the water.

The wet-dry chamber houses the biolo

In regards to what "Funfishtank" has to say, I disagree. Whether you cycle fishy or fishless does not affect how many fish you can a.
