Freshwater Aquarium Plant Care

Some biological filtration techniques take this process several steps further, by converting those nitrates into nitrogen gasses through the cultivation of anaerobic bacteria in the aquarium. This process, called "de-nitrification," will be discussed in a future article.

The Basic Nitrogen Cycle in The Aquarium: A simple explanation.

Fish eliminate most of their waste in the form of ammonia. Ammonia is toxic to most animals, so in a brand new aquarium, the first fish introduced must be

It is interesting to note that the same forces that attract these compounds to the air bubbles in your skimmer also attract such elements to the air-water interface at the surface of the aquarium, hence the need for very efficient collection of surface-skimmed water to feed y

Whatever ones motivation for mixing unnatural reef invertebrates is, reconciliation may be possible. The key is to illuminate the display adequately but not to over illuminate it. In effect, we are trying to find the lowest common denominator for reaching the compensation point for all of our charges without exceeding the saturation point for some (as the case might be for example with an adequately illuminated shallow water "Yellow Leather" coral

Wiring new Quick Disconnect Cords
Hi resident experts, I recently upgraded my old ballast to a new PFO 120v (dual) ballast. What I forgot, when I bought the ballast, was that my disconnect cords were different. So I ended up buying PFO cords, but dont know how to wire them. Here are the pictures of the cords in question.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v676/Atomikk/etc/P1010255.jpg Is the cord th.

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 (Amhilopho.
