How to Establish the Aquarium

1. Only the smallest desktop aquarium, fish tank, spherical shape cannot equip anything. Just put the fish in it, feed them occasionally and change the water. Oxygen will dissolve in it due to the natural diffusion.

2. Larger aquariums (about 30 liters) must be equipped with aquarium air diffuser. They are of two types: with a rotating impeller and vibration. The former are more reliable, but the second is more maintainable, and therefore the owner knows how to repair them are even longer. Be sure to read the instructions to the compressor, can I keep it switched on around the clock, or it requires periodic shutdown.

3. If you just put the hose for the oxygen the fish need, it might cause a few large bubbles rising at high speed. It's not just ugly: they reach the border between water and air so rapidly that the diffusion of oxygen almost does not occur. In addition, these bubbles may disturb and even injure the fish. To avoid this, use the nozzle on the hose.

4. There are some kinds of fish, which would feel comfortable when the water temperature is a little bit higher than room temperature. For them, you have to equip the cheap fish tank heater. It is best to use such a device in each aquarium, which heats the water for the temperature constantly.

5. Quite a large aquarium (about 50 litres) it is advisable to equip the filter. This device constantly passes water through the filter element by means of a small pump. But note that water will have to change anyway, albeit much less frequently. In addition, the extent of contamination will need to be replaced and the filter element itself.

6. LED aquarium spotlight is necessary not only observers, but also by its inhabitants. One of them is enough visible light, and the other required a bit of ultraviolet. In the second case, use only UV lamps that are specifically designed for use in the aquarium.

7. Accessory increases the comfort of access to the aquarium. First of all, it includes the extension, if each socket has a separate switch. It allows you to be individually controlled compressors, heaters, filters and lights, not pulling their plugs. It is important that all the switches in the cord were double pole. And to know, is it too high (or low) temperature, install on the inner side of one of the side walls of the aquarium thermometer with suction Cup. They in any case should not be mercurial.
