Initially (1) there is no ammonia in a new system. With time going by, addition of exogenous ammonia, a bit of food, some live rock... ammonia accumulates and populations of chemo-autotrophic bacteria that can utilize it as well. As these first ammonia-utilizing micro-organisms increase in number, their by-product of nitrite (2) begins to accumulate triggering the beginning of a second group of species of nitrifying bacteria (3) that begin to populate the aquarium, converting the nitrite in

If you take a quick look at this species they dont seem like aquarium fishes. They are large and highly predatory. But then again, these are qualities that attract some, like me! If youve been keeping aquariums for a while and have the room to keep large predatory fishes I recommend you try

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

e. NOT a saw blade...). You want fast, straight, accurate cuts w/o burrs... look into the hand tools that have cammed engineering, use a "Sharpie" for marking your cuts, labeling cut parts...

Flowerhorn Cichlids

Flowerhorn cichlids is a hybrid cichlid that was developed in Malaysia during the second half of the 1990: s. It was created by crossbreeding different South American cichlids. Exactly which cichlids that were used to create the Flowerhorn is a well kept secret only known by the breeders who developed the species but they did most likely crossbreed Trimacs (Amhilophous Trimaculatu.
