Aquarium Camden

It simply slips on over the output and using a variety of gears and the pressure of the water flow of the powerhead it converts that straight jet of water into a revolving, diffuse flow of water. As a test, I ran one of these on a Maxi-Jet 1200 for one month without a prefilter in my 120 gallon reef display before it failed to operate. I then removed it, gave it a quick cleaning, reassembled, and it was performing as good as new again for another month before it required being cleaned again. The entire maintenance procedure could not have taken me

In general: the primary excretory product of fishes and invertebrates is ammonia (whether theyre fed or not). Were it not to dilution by water change, chemical filtrants and/or biological filtration ammonia would accumulate to toxic concentrations.

As the story goes ammonia is converted to nitrites by way of microbes, notably by Nitrosomonas bacteria. Nitrites are in turn changed into nitrates by other microbes, especially Nitrobacters. This assortment of populations takes a while to establish itself

Some fluidized-bed filter designs are stand-alone units that are too tall to be placed under an aquarium in a cabinet stand. These are actually the best designs, but are not practical for most aquariums. Other fluidized-bed filters are designed to hang on the back of an aquarium or sit in a reservoir, and may be driven by a small pump or the return line of a canister filter. These types of fluidized-bed filters are an excellent way to provide biological filtration on an aquarium equipped only with a canister filter.

Although there are some vivarium and terrarium applications for incandescent lighting, we do not recommend incandescent lighting for normal aquaria use. Ever!

Fluorescent

The standard for aquarium lighting, fluorescent lamps are used in the majority of aquaria. Available in many sizes and color spectra, fluorescent lamps are ideal for fish-only aquariums and some freshwater live-plant applications. They are made fro

There are many ways to achieve this mythical "high water quality". For folks fortunate by geography there are open systems, pumping new water from the sea and overflowing old to waste. For most all aquarists however, the sum total of what we do to preserve

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 everyone but fishermen and wildlife biologists. The best cure is always ....

SE vs DE
I did a search but my searching skills suck I guess. I'm trying to figure out if DE is worth the cost over SE for a dual setup over a 75 or a 90 gallon tank, haven't decided yet, but I obviously want the most light for the least money :) DE bulbs are more expensive (seems to be), and the pendants are definitly more costly than a simple reflector a.

UV Sterilization: What is it and How is it Used?
Some aquarists believe they help eliminate bacteria, parasitic, fungal, viral, algae, and other unfriendly pathogens in an aquarium, others believe that they are a waste of money. FORUMS: UV's - Anyone....
