Overflow Boxes vs. Drilled Fittings:

I tend to be more charitable re these devices than several of my cohorts. Overflow boxes are for folks who have not or dont want to have their tanks drilled, but instead come to rely on hang-on arrangements that in turn are subject to tragic failure... counting on sufficient water level/s, a lack of blockage by livestock... IF you want to use overflow boxes instead of drilling your tank/s, DO use at least two (yes, I know theyre expensive... so is your gear, livestock, flooding, divorce) on ANY size sy

They are generally constructed for short to medium-term life, with many being so inexpensively constructed and offered that they are regarded as "disposable". Some will last more than five years (uncommon), but even they are generally "tired" and only able to provide reduced flow. Most have a useful lifespan of less than 5 years. While we are on the topic of failure and modest construct what about shock hazards? Good heavens, it is amazing and frightfully common how many people have gotten a shock from a faulty powerhead! Yet it is not actually surprising. Take a look and you will find that most have no

Explore garden pond outlets, books and other sources for products and concepts that can be adapted for large aquaria.

The suggestion is to keep two unique styles (venturi, airstone, injection, or aspirated) because different skimmer designs can extract different qualities of skimmate. Alternate or stagger cleaning and

Brave New World Technology:

Fluidized bed, algal (turf) scrubbers, anaerobic denitraters, and oh, so much more are on the cutting-edge of new ways to biologically filter water.

Fluidized bed filters are additional borrowed technology from the sewage treatment industry (along with novel "out-gassing" rings,

All you need is pretty much leaving them alone and letting them do their thing if you lucky enough to get a pair. If not, breeding might be very hard. They are a very long-lived fish, probably one of the reasons they are so popular today. Originally from Amazon.
