Type Gold Fish Aquarium

Even though Hagen uses a high quality stainless steel, I have found they can still rust a tiny amount after years of use. I have yet to have one fail due to rusting, I have never suspected any livestock losses due to metals poisoning, and the rusting that I have noticed has taken three or more years to develop, but it is still a point to consider when evaluating and purchasing.

Marineland Penguins

Penguin powerheads are middle-of-the-road performers in my book. They operate ok, but they seem to "chatter" more than other brands ("Chatter" is the annoying noise caused by impeller vibration) and sometimes fail to function when first turn

Filtration, en toto, embodies all you can do to mimic or even best "natural conditions": low organics, high oxygen tension, ready concentrations of necessary minerals and foods; non-linear, chaotic and robust water movement. All at the lowest cost , maintenance and potential for breakdown. What will be the next big improvement in reef filtration? Maybe youll be the design/engineer, or dreamer who comes up with it.

Notes on Prefilters Used for Stand-Alone Wet-Dry & Berlin Filter Systems:

Water is fed into wet-dry filters and Berlin reservoirs from a separate "overflow prefilter," which may be built-into the aquarium (called a "reef-ready" aquarium) or purchased as a stand-alone unit which hangs on the back of the aquarium.

Built-in prefilters are the best type, as there are no siphon tubes involved w

2. A small water pump (less than 100 gallons per hour) and clear plastic tubing (1/2" inner dimension or 5/8" outer dimension).
Fish tank pumps are fine. The smallest ones work well for the typical size containers. Some shops supply suction cups with water pumps. Both the pump and tubing can be found at an aquarium, hardware, or garden supply store. To straighten the hose, boil it in

Overflow water gravity feeds via pipe to the reservoir sumps, out of the public view. Here the water is heated, filtered and sterilized; using some combination of fluidized bed (wet-dry), sand, diatomaceous-earth, cartridge filtration to remove particulates; chemical filtrants such as carbon, peat and zeolite; and physical filters like ultraviolet sterilization ozone, protein skimmers to reduce organics. There are many companies offering these products and design services (see p.282 of PSMs Buying Guide & Directory, Special Product

Complimentary Goldfish
I've heard of people traveling with dogs, cats, and even an occasional fish. But this Chicago hotel takes vacationing with pets to a new level. They will provide a goldfish....

Daphnia For The Aquarium

Daphnia are a great food source for both young and adult aquarium fish, you could catch them with a net in a pond, but their's a risk of bringing in parasites. I just found an article about growing daphnia yourself, nice read for the real tinkers out there :-)
