A 10 gallon tropical fish tank and contains bush-nose catfish, guppies, white albino catfish, a neon tetra (they were 6 but all died!! and idk y), and this tank also contains a bamboo shrimp and also a fry guppy and it was there since the birth (wanted to c if it will survive or not, but fortunately did) … the tank under is for raising the fryz, and I’ve got 24 baby guppies, a gold snail, and 2 ghost shrimps in there.

This was my 4ft Freshwater Community Tank from a few years ago. It changed a lot over the time I had it, and the tank is now being used for Cichlids. This is just a moment in time where I liked how it looked. This was my first ‘real’ tank, and since starting this back in 2007 I’ve learned a lot more about aquariums and improved my fish keeping skills. Thanks for watching! -Jazz

my turtle tank update july 09

i’ve done 10g and 2.5g planted setups. i wanted to turn the 55g into one. of course diy, poor mans, low-tech route. oh yeah i dont do aquascaping. as long as it grows i’ll be happy. and i’ll just trim when they grow in. setup: 55g, two dual shoplights 40w/tubes = 160w = ~2.9w/g, plant/aquarium & sunlight tubes, open top, supersoil and (play)sand subtrates, two small powerheads, 100w heater, no filter, airstone (night use only), eggcrates. plants: anachris/elodea, ludwigia (ovalis or repens?), watersprite, various cryptocorynes, dwarf anubias, brazilian pennywort, unknown (stem) pennywort, microswords, corkscrew vals, unknown amazonsword, and possible glossostigma (hitchhiker), which would be the best xmas gift for 2006. *update: it is a glossostigma elatinoides. i dont think any xmas gift will top this lil’plant. fish: 2m/4fm orange guppies, 4 otocinclus, 2 amano shrimps, 8 lampeyes. possibly will add a few small angels to eat a few guppy fry. plant food: flourish iron and supplement, no co2 setup, just the once/day fish morning feeding. and night time oxygenation. those interested in this route. www.malloftheworld.com www.aquaworldaquarium.com www.aquaworldaquarium.com More links www.freewebs.com

In this video we discuss how to build a do it yourself aquarium co2 reactor, bubble counter, diffuser and the best recipe to use to generate co2. Co2 is used in planted aquariums and when used will produced great results. Your plants will look larger, greener and they will be all around healthier. Plant’s in an aquarium absorb co2 and convert it into oxygen during the day (when the lights are on). Please be advised that at night (when the lights are off), plants actually use oxygen instead of producing oxygen and no longer require co2. The ingredients for this (1.89 litres bottle) recipe are: -2 cups of sugar -1/4 tsp of yeast -1/2 tsp of baking soda -then fill the bottle 3/4th’s of the way full with water. -Shake the contents with your hand over the lid and then attach the bottle to the system The reaction will begin to occur within 24 hours. Once the reaction has started you will want to check your bubble counter that your mixture is producing about 1 bubble/second The mixture typically needs to be replaced every 3-4 weeks. If you notice the bubble count has drastically dropped below 1 bubble/second feel free to shake the container. *Warning* If you notice any fish bobbing near the surface it means they’re probably gasping for air and that there is to much co2 in the aquarium. For smaller aquariums beware of this and if it should occur add a valve to reduce the bubble per second rate.

A look at some of my aquascapes past and present.

setup:
55g, two dual shoplights 40w/tubes = 160w = ~2.9w/g, plant/aquarium & sunlight tubes, open top, supersoil and (play)sand subtrates, two small powerheads, 100w heater, no filter, airstone (night use only), eggcrates.

plants:
anachris/elodea, ludwigia (ovalis or repens?), watersprite, various cryptocorynes, dwarf anubias, brazilian pennywort, unknown (stem) pennywort, microswords, corkscrew vals, unknown amazonsword, and possible glossostigma (hitchhiker), which would be the best xmas gift for 2006. *update: it is a glossostigma elatinoides. i dont think any xmas gift will top this lil’plant.

fish:
2m/4fm orange guppies, 4 otocinclus, 2 amano shrimps, 8 lampeyes. possibly will add a few small angels to eat a few guppy fry.

plant food:
flourish iron and supplement, no co2 setup, just the once/day fish morning feeding. and night time oxygenation.

This is a tank of a Zoo Aquarium near my hometown.

We have a video of each tank in this Zoo.
27th of March 2009 (27.03.2009)

For scale: The front glass panel is 1,2 meter (3.93 feet) high.

The population of this tank:
Congo tetra / Blaue Kongosalmler (Phenacogrammus interruptus)
Lionhead cichlid / Buckelkopfbuntbarsch (Steatocranus casuarius)

For example, a fluted vase design allows for an inner-diameter resting lid, which changes the salinity and saltcreep maintenance drastically vs any other shape. It also provides an angled surface for detritus accumulation, which is easily wiped for maintenance and this is (nitrogen) export.

A small square palmtop design, with an internal plant sub-division, becomes the first and still the only longterm sealed (non evaporating) coral reef aquarium, growing acroporid coral specimens into 3 inch tabular forums documented over a two year course.
Shape matters in pico reef design, and pico reef design matters to marine biology as a whole because it influences coral morphology, allelopathy, and new observations for science unique to hyperconcentrated niche environments.
thank you for stopping by!

I invite everyone to discuss the biology or problems associated with any aquarium care, and feel free to link your own micro reefs if you keep them.

Anyone who would like to research pico reef history can start at Reefs.Org and Reefcentral around 2002 and nano-reef.com
These forums paved the way for the explosion in popularity and are 95% of the existing documentation regarding progress of this layman’s science

It seemed interesting for all of us to share pico reef design concepts on this video, so post anything you know about them please or any reference material on the matter.

nice to meet you all and thank you for watching!

I stay active enough on this forum and in the marine and fish forums it won’t be too hard to find me so we can chat about marine biology and aquatic sciences if not here. I will also help you build and stabilize these, so hit me up in the comments if you start one.
