Reef Aquarium Hoods

Unfortunately, goldfish are very vulnerable to disease, with young goldfish even more so. Many new goldfish owners have watched their goldfish die in their fish tanks or aquariums only days or even hours after purchasing a goldfish. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to preserve the health of your goldfish. First, do all that is possible to make sure that your fish is healthy. If there are any sores on its body, pass on it. Before you put your fish in the fish bowel, let th

Freshwater plants greatly benefit from fertilizer supplements that are safe for use with fish. Aquarium supplements should be used in almost all saltwater aquaria to replenish nutrients that are used up by fish, macro algae, and sessile & motile marine invertebrates.

3) Modifications should be made gradually; more important than any given point is the rate of change in water chemistry.

The healthier your livestock is to start with, the more drastic changes they can endure. Around the world, Ive seen "delicate" marine life swim into freshwater, sewage, garbage strewn areas with impunity. Life is not easy on the reef. Currents and storms are constant, theres more and less light, salinity, oxygen, Redox... Conditions are dynamic, not static.

Your filtration systems function is therefore two-fold; to reduce the amount, effects

The screen is then covered by 2" of fine coral gravel. This allows the aquarist to turn over the top inch of gravel occasionally to clean it, without disturbing the anaerobic layer below.

Anaerobic bacteria form in the bottom depths of the substrate and in the water below. As anaerobic bacteria cultivate, they remove nitrates. Anaerobic action produces a fair amount of heat. The heat warms the water layer below the gravel. The warmer water flows upwards, displacing cooler water above the gravel. This action moves water through the plenum at very slow rates. The slow movement of water through the gravel helps to prevent dangerou

These low maintenance units are great not only for driving down the accumulation of the "end products" of aerobic nitrification, but also as harbors and cultures of interstitial fauna that can add a great deal of reef fish nutrition. To top it all off, the reductive nature of the denitrator dissolves the calcareous sand, making minera

Black Neon Tetra
Few things are as eye-catching as a large school of shimmering tetras. If you already have a school of Neon or Rummy Nose Tetras, consider adding Black Neons....

phosphates too high
hello again- Well my 90 gallon predator/reef tank has been up in running for about 7 months. Everything is running smoothly so far- water parameters are nitrate > 20 ppm, nitrite 0ppm, ammonia 0 ppm, pH 8.2, salinity 1.025, but.

Common Cichlid Diseases
Like all fish kept in tanks, Cichlids are prone to disease. The artificial environment and closed system are the perfect breeding grounds for pathogens and parasites. Of course, wild fish get diseases, but these go unseen by everyo.

Tank Setup Expenses
Hey I was wondering how much you have spent on setting up a FOWLR or a reef tank w/o the livestock? It would deeply be appreciated if you posted every single equipment and its cost. Thanks.
