Safe Aquarium Plants

.. to be practical.

The Actual Arrangement:

Due diligence, what does it mean to you? Here it means investigating enough to make intelligent choices/decisions on what is best for your system... How many through-puts (bulkheads, gas-jet fittings, thru-hulls...) of what diameter will you want/need? Where should they go? Maybe an overflow standpipe arrangement is better for your application? P

They look similar to a large T fitting. Water is pumped up through the bottom and the water exits in an alternating pattern from each side.

Just like the Hydor Flo, these units reduce the water flow because they use that pressure to create the alternating pattern. Again, I dont feel like that is a major shortcoming. It is simply a tradeoff that one must make for the wave-like action. That said, I do think these units have one major weakness. They only come with barb fittings, and they are not very good barb fittings at that. I would much prefer if they came wi

The types and sizes of filtration the aquarium is equipped with greatly influences the number of fish that can be kept. Using several filtration methods on the same aquarium that remove different forms of waste can increase the capacity of a fish tank, but one needs to remember that during long power outages, too many fish can be disastrous.

The number of territories (hiding places) that exist in an aquarium can limit the number of fish that can be kept. This is a factor that is usually ignored by uninformed aquarium owners. A clean tank with the best filtration available may only

Biological media used in wet-dry filters can vary widely. The types of media used include plastic ball media, DLS (Double Layer Spiral) material, sintered (porous) glass, and many others. Although some media are better than others, all have one thing in common, and that is high surface area for bacteria cultivation.

The water entering the wet-dry filter usually feeds into an area above the wet-dry chamber, equipped with a trickle plate. The

This will allow fast and tidy removal of pumps for cleaning, servicing or replacement. Neglect to heed this aspect of proper installation has often resulted in many hours of hard labor and frustration by aquarists that have hard-plumbed pumps inline and then were faced with draining a tank to remove them.

In closing, by category, external direct drive pumps are admittedly not quite as energy efficient a

Hey
They are very interesting pictures that you have there. I am big fan of discuss fish, unfortunately there are .

Fish Out of Water
Although Boni Comandante Jr.’s technique is intended to ship fish used for food, the idea of putting fish to 'sleep' and then transporting them without water is an interesting one.....
