Pvc Pipe Freshwater Aquarium

The reasons for this are many. Most cultures are feeble, too dilute, and/or made up of inappropriate species of microbes. Way too many times, the hobbyist is to blame. They put the "bugs" in a chemically hostile, non-nutritive medium; or alternatively over-poison the water with an ammonia feeding stock. Watch out for these chemical solutions to "feed" your system; read and follow the directions provided to the "T"; the ammonia provided is concentrated.

The saddest thing about utilizing these commercially prepared cultures i

Some of these units are plain garbage, not "pulling down" anywhere near what their manufacturers claim, leaking, failing, going to fish-heaven in less than a year. There are reputable people in the trade, and a few more units on their way, thank goodness, that will hopefully oust the charlatans.

Placement of chillers is critical; they should be where you can reach them for cleaning and checking, but also positioned for thorough ventilation and no water contact/splashing.

Doing

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

A female usually lays 1,000-2,000 eggs. The eggs are opaque at first, turning transparent in 24 hours. After the eggs are laid, both parents watch over the eggs, wafting the eggs with their fin and guarding them against predators. Occasionally they take the eggs in their mouth, which keeps them clean and turns up bad eggs, which are then destroyed.

If a constant tank temperature is maintained, the eggs should hatch in abou

These filter types still rank high as "bacteria homes" for newly-overcrowded systems and quarantine/hospital tanks. They weather changes (such as moving) and wont change your water chemistry during treatments.

Power Filters:

Hang on the back, inside the tank, pressurized and not canister models are all good ideas. In addition to speeding and stabilizing "cycling", these workhorses are great mechanical filters and water circulators. They

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 .

Aquarium lighting

Aquarium lighting in one of the key aspects in both the reef aquarium and the freshwater aquarium. It gives the animals a natural activity and rest period and it makes the plants, corals grow. Invertebrates and corals need it to surviv.
