  • What is the operation of a battery-operated aquarium air pump?

    A battery-operated aquarium air pump is a device that generates airflow for the aquarium. It performs this function by forcing water from the aquarium and through the air tubing. It is primarily used to provide oxygen to the fish when the tank has no other means of delivering oxygen. The device is powered by a battery, either disposable or rechargeable. Because they are battery operated, they can make a great choice for any fish owner looking to move their tank to a new home.

  • Which aquarium air pump is best for my fish tank?

    Answering your question depends on knowing the tank's size, the number of fish you wish to keep, and the type of fish. I have kept a 10-gallon tank for bettas and tropical fish. I have tried both the hang-on-back and the submersible air pumps. The hang-on-back air pumps look nice but are not as powerful as the submersible ones. I also found them less durable. The submersible ones are hard to clean and often require replacement before the tank is half full. A good, basic air pump for 1 or 2 fish tanks is the Current USA B100. The pump is capable of pumping up to 100 mph. This is more than enough for the small tanks, and the pump is small; it does not require a lot of space. It is not very quiet, but considering how small it is, I don't mind the noise. Another good pump is the Aquatec 300. This pump is also capable of pumping up to 100 mph. It is quieter. I used this one in my 10-gallon tank and it worked very well.

  • Describe some amphibians that have flourecense?

    A fluorescent animal is an animal that emits light through a chemical reaction in its body, without the help of outside light sources. The order Anura includes frogs and toads, but it is not the only amphibian group to have biofluorescence. This phenomenon happens in at least five other anuran families: Leptodactylidae, Bufonidae, Centrolenidae, Dendrobatidae, and Ranidae.

  • Can we find African dwarf frogs in freshwater?

    African Dwarf Frogs live in both fresh water and water with slightly higher salt levels. It is advisable to not keep frogs in water that has a high salt level – the more salt, the more frogs can’t stand it (it’s like too much salt in your blood, you’d feel sick). The ideal water to use is around 5-10 ppm. I don’t know the exact reason why a high salt level is bad for the frogs, but it is. If there are too many chemicals in the water, the frogs will get a fungal infection or parasite infection. The good news is that African Dwarf Frogs are used to living in few places, so they are very tolerant to different water types. I believe that the frog will die (unless it’s a baby frog) if you put it in freshwater because they can’t breathe. So make sure that if you keep the frog in freshwater, it has some way of breathing – either a vent (a hole on the side of the tank), a floating mount, or something that allows the frog to at least stick its nose out of the water.

  • Are feeling insecurity that your fishes may fell ill?

    The first question to ask is if the fish are eating. If they are, run to the pet store for help. If not, the fish could be dead and in the process of decomposition. If the fish are not dead, your tank may be too overcrowded. The ammonia and nitrates from the fish's waste need to be broken down by bacteria. If there is too much fish waste, the bacteria will get overwhelmed, and your fish will get sick.

  • what-are-some-cleaning-tips-for-your-tank?

    A fish tank is one of the most beautiful accessories to have in your house. Fish make everything beautiful. If you have a fish tank in your home, then it is your responsibility to keep it sparkling clean. This can be hard to do. Fortunately, there are some tips that can help you keep your fish tank clean. One thing you can do is use a toothbrush to scrub the sides of the tank. You can also use a clean cloth or cotton swab. Another thing you can do is use a siphon. If you remove the fish and water, you can use a siphon to remove the gunky stuff. You can also get a sponge that is specifically made for the purpose of aquarium cleaning.

  • What is a survey of aquatic invertebrates?

    Aquatic invertebrates are animals without backbones. This can include many different types of animals such as mollusks (e.g. snails), arthropods (e.g. crabs), worms, and even insects. They rely on the water for their respiration and feeding and therefore must live in water permanently. They are also called 'aquatic animals'.

  • what-are-the-differences-between-terrestrial-and-marine-invertebrates?

    There are many differences between terrestrial and marine invertebrates, but one of the major ones is the environment surrounding them. Terrestrial invertebrates live on the ground and have a little versatility. They have to make do with whatever is in the soil and rely on whatever food source they can find. Marine invertebrates, on the other hand, live in the ocean and although they can't alter their environment, they have far more options when it comes to food and shelter.
