The same holds true with more nitrate. The more you have, the less viable/healthy your aquarium water is.

Take care to not place too much livestock too quickly (variable with type of system, filtration...), nor too much in the long haul, nor over-feed the system... as all can and will cause trouble with overloading your biological filtration (among other things).

Too Late! Ammonia, Nitrite Too HIGH!!!

Should you ever find your system ammonia or nitrite concentrations approaching 1.0 ppm due to overloading, mis-feeding,

nstead utilize a wet/dry trickle filter with a very shallow layer of gravel merely for decoration and to cover the bottom pane of glass

The other interesting option with these powerheads is the needle wheel that is included to regulate the injection of air into the water stream coming from the pump. While this is kind of neat, it is not really that useful or necessary. I generally forgo the air injection in all marine setups because the bubbles bursting at the surface of the water creates far too much splash and salt spray for my liking. A

Unfortunately, that is not the case. Some saltwater fish simply should not be kept in home aquariums.

Our philosophy:

If it wont live in a hobbyists aquarium, it should not even be offered for sale. This is a position we have maintained publicly for some time now. Although the sale of these species has declined, at least in larger aquarium stores, many fi

Valves are not emphasized here as they add considerably to expense, are generally not needed, and complicate a delightfully simple application to excess (creating a "juggling act" with one adjustment affecting all). Another concern is that if the manifold does not have enough outlets, there will be undue pressure placed on the pump (generally harmless for magnetic drives, but perhaps harmful to direct drives). On the opposite end of the spec

Because of this I rarely use them, but they do have a couple of interesting options that are worth mentioning.

These pumps can be purchased with a kit to use them in a reverse flow undergravel filter. In a conventional undergravel filter, water is pulled down through the gravel, under the filter plate, and up the lift tube. In this mode the beneficial bacteria in the substrate act as a biological filter, while the substrate itself acts as a crude mechanical filter as it traps dirt and debri

Hi

I hope you like my pict.

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....
