Dont fly blind, utilize pH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate test kits. I would not rely on your dealers good graces to test your water for you. What if theyre closed when you need a test? Simple colorimetric (color changing) assay test kits are inexpensive, accurate and precise enough for hobbyist use.

More Livestock? When?

Well, it all depends... mainly on the type of marine system were talking a

Water flow issues can literally make or break a tank. Some popular fishes express neurotic behaviors like "pacing" in slow flow environments: swimming back and forth against the glass relentlessly as if pursuing their own reflection. Some tangs, for example, will cease this behavior with increased water flow. Sessile reef invertebrates depend on accurately applied water flow to bring food to them and to carry waste away. Their very lives will be threatened furthermore in poor flow environments over time and in ways that some aquarists can easily overlook, like encroachment by alg

Okay, Ill admit it; I like the bubbles, and they move a lot of water for not much energy consumed.

Thermal Control:

Every system should have a heater, unless its a truly "cold" water system requiring the use of a chiller year-round. About two to three watts per gallon in the way of a heater is recommended, unt

.. look around as there are some very large price differences here.

3) Number can be important as Ive said... what happens if you have just one through-put and it somehow gets blocked (happens all the time)... will the second and possibly only other one be enough to prevent water from going on your floor, your neighbors ceiling...? In the face of paying to replace burnt out pump/s, ruined flooring, moving expenses.... another through-put or two is cheap!

4) Placement is important. You dont want to drill the holes for or place your through-put fittings too close to the top, corners, or edge o

nstead utilize a wet/dry trickle filter with a very shallow layer of gravel merely for decoration and to cover the bottom pane of glass

The other interesting option with these powerheads is the needle wheel that is included to regulate the injection of air into the water stream coming from the pump. While this is kind of neat, it is not really that useful or necessary. I generally forgo the air injection in all marine setups because the bubbles bursting at the surface of the water creates far too much splash and salt spray for my liking. A
