Fresh Water Aquarium Sharks

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 short length (perhaps just 3-6") is all that is needed on the end of each teed outlet on the manifold to superbly finesse water flow in the aquarium as needed. Clearly, effluent direction on the manifold can be tweaked and tuned in ways that are impossible with rigid and planar powerheads.

Ultimately, the goal with any interpretation of outlets/nozzles that you may ch

The plenum method was discovered by Dr. Jean Jaubert and is often referred to as the Jaubert System. "Plenum" refers to an un-oxygenated layer of water trapped beneath a deep layer of gravel or sand at the bottom of an aquarium. This layer of water becomes anaerobic. Bacteria cultivate in this oxygen-free environment and remove nitrates from the aquarium. There are several variations of the plenum, depending on what literature you read.

The basic structure of the plenum system is essentially a deep (3" to 4") layer of gravel, suspended 1/2" to 1" above the bottom of an aquarium. It is usually recommended that very little

Spotted, Florida and short-nosed gars are smaller than the other species and may be more suitable for aquariums. They usually dont grow larger than 2 feet in aquariums. Long-nosed and alligator gars grow to a very large size and larger ponds are recommended if youd like to keep fully grown specimens. So if you dont have (or plan on getting) a l

for wet-dry filters). These towers employ a media and circulation in an attempt to optimize filter surface area, and per-unit circulation/conversion efficiency. They work; and are especially useful in Large, crowded (as in wholesale) systems with widely vacillating bio-loads.

Other filters focus on the removal of the "end-product" of crowded closed marine systems, nitrates. Macro-algae and other nitrate-using live-rock constituents can only do so much in using up this hotly-debated metabolite. Algal scrubbers of different sorts, with intense light, shallow water and specialized attachment media can do amazing amounts of nitrate (e

I've heard of people traveling with dogs, cats, and even an occasional fish. But this Chicago hotel takes vacationing with pets to a new level. They will provide a goldfish....
