Aquarium Live Screensaver

Even for "fish only" systems, a pound or more per ten gallons of either or both LR/LS is about all thats called for to get things going. How to apply the rock and/or sand? Plunk, sprinkle them in. Done

This is our choice for many of our reef and all of our live-plant aquaria, especially when a chiller cannot be used. If a chiller can be used, however, we recommend metal halide lighting in combination with 7100K Power Compacts to help improve the color rendering. PowerCompact lamps should be changed every 12 to 18 months, depending on how many hours th

As Ive written before Cleanliness is not sterility. Cleaning, vacuuming, bleaching ornaments too much, too soon disrupts/destroys needed bacterial cultures. Dont be too fastidious about cleaning all your system at once; you want good, strong beneficial microbe populations living in and on the "hard" surfaces in your system.

Wherefore

This type of fish food is better suited for the dietary requirements of pond fish in cool water and wont pollute the water with excess ammonia. Some water gardeners continue to feed their fish until they no longer come to the surface. I stop feeding my pond fish when the water falls below 42 F.
There is no need to worry about "frozen fish" if a section of the pond is at least 18 inches deep. Pond fish will seek the deepest part of the pond and over-winter there un

Very solid materials are necessary for aquarium stand construction overall.

Lighting any tank is a matter of depth and delivery. The transmission of light is reduced at increasing depth. The luminary needs of the inhabitants will dictate the hardware necessary to meet the demand. For photosynthetic plants, algae and animals in water deeper than 24/60cm, metal halides may be required. For large marine aquaria that are long but shallow, modern efficient fluorescent lighting will work very fine like T 5 technology. Whichever lighting you choose, be sure

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 survive because they have the same photosynthesis process as plants. Aquarium Lightning is not only functional, there are also c.

Refugium reverse photo period, could it actually fuel daytime algae?
I was just reading some articles about PH and whatnot (Randy Holmes Farley stuff) and started to think about CO2. If algae gives off Co2 at night time when it isn't photosynthesizing, then the chaeto ball in my fuge is doing just that during the day when the fuge light is off and the display light is on .. thus, helping to fuel algae in my display tank! Am I .
