Sponsors That Keep Fish Tank Pet Alive:
Fresh from my post on How long to keep your Aquarium Lights on, Justin reminded me that I forgot to mention fish need night as much as day.
As we all know, our goal for aquarium lighting is to recreate the natural habitat of our fish, corals, reefs or plants. And this doesn’t just mean the daytime, the night is just as important. This could mean turning of the lights completely or using one of those Lunar LEDs.
Just imagine living under bright lights under 24 hours and you’ll understand the importance of day and night cycles.
What if you don’t follow this? Well, an imbalance in these cycles could cause stress to your organisms and result in poor health and interruptions to natural behaviour cycles like spawning and even feeding.
Thanks Justin.

Not everyone has a place to put their aquarium on top of. Specially when it comes to medium to large size fish tanks, perfectly balanced and sturdy support is crucial. While some may choose to build their own aquarium stand, an easier and more convenient way is to simply buy one. Ready to buy fish tank stands come in a wide range of varieties. There are so many different kinds that there is a niche market just for aquarium stands called aquarium furnitures. And as long as you get a stand that will keep your aquarium steady there really is nothing else to consider but your taste. [click to continue…]

Chances are the fish in your aquarium came from warm waters and the room temperature it’s placed in just doesn’t cut it.

To understand why you need an aquarium heater, you need to look at how water temperature affects fish. To a fish, water is all the space around them. It is literally their source of oxygen and life. Everything from water cleanliness to acidity to temperature has an effect on the fish similar to how everything around us affects us humans. [click to continue…]

While going thru my Fish Tank Pet hub, I came across this out of this world hub from Peter Dickinson. He’s hub is about an anti-gravity atmospheric pressure aquarium. (nerd alert!)
To simplify things, what all jargon means is an aquarium with one of its sides having hole in the middle where you can place your hand in to feed or touch the fishes. Yep, you read that right. Don’t believe me? Check out his anti-gravity aquarium hub for yourself. [click to continue…]
