Aquarium Fish Parrot

Branching off below this closed loop for any other applications is not recommended; we need a dedicated supply of water here. Obey the manufacturers recommendations for line size. Home aquariums of a couple hundred gallons or less will likely use 1" or " pipe. Larger pumps and systems will use accordingly larger plumbing for this purpose.

The manifold ring/loo

After setting up the tank, adding water, testing your gear and allowing it to run for a few days, such live material can be added to it.

"Old" Filter Media:

Another "pre-seeded" possibility is placing filter sponge, ceramic media, carbon, polyester/wool et al. from an up-and-running system in your new set-up. Such media can be easily transported damp from one tank to another. One proviso: Make sure the "donor" system has no r

The creation of this list was not based on any type of scientific method, but rather on our own experience with the many aquariums weve installed. Each species on this list has consistently proven able to tolerate high levels of ammonia and nitrite, for at least four weeks, in the many freshwater aquariums installed by The Aquarium Professionals Group.

Note to Experienced Hobbyists: This is a list that was written mostly for beginners. In some cases, we felt that it was best to use the common family names that aquarium and pet stores use for fish, rather than actual scientific classifications, so

Some of the favmost popular species include the Pearl Gourami (Trichogaster leeri), the Dwarf Gourami (Colisa lalia) and the Honey Gourami (Colisa sota). And these are the species I am going to say a few words about breeding.

On the plus side they are small, powerful, and inexpensive. On the negative side, my experience has shown these pumps to be unreliable and potentially dangerous. I have had a number simply fail to operate after just a year or two of service. Worse yet, I have also received mild shocks from a couple of these pumps. The potential for electrocution was the final straw. I systemically went through my customers tanks and replaced all the Rio pumps with comparable ones from other manufacturers. This was both a liability and cost-effectiveness issue. I can easily replace and bill a customer

Question about rock
I am not sure if this is the place for this, but I had to start somewhere. I am going to be doing a 90gal. soon and wanted to know if I can use limestone as a base for my reef? I want to fill the tank with the limestone and then seed it in areas with high quality live rock. If I cannot us.
