AQUARIUM□A SIMPLE GUIDE TO SETTING UP ANDMAINTAINING A SUCCESSFUL HOME AQUARIUM  \nA COLOURMASTER PUBLICATION  \nhttps://archive.org/details/youraquariumsimp0000unseISBN 0859330346  \nFOREWORD  \nFrom the pen of a widely acknowledged expert,thispublication will be of value not only to beginners butalso to those who have already acquired some experienceof this fascinating hobby.It contains useful and interestinginformation about all aspects of fish keeping at home andis presented in such a way as to appeal to a wide varietyof readers.  \nCONTENTS  \nBasic RequirementsFeeding and General CareColdwater FishTropical FishTropical Marine Aquariums  \n3  \n11  \n19  \n23  \n29  \nA well-planted aquarium supportinga community of Guppies  \n# BASIC REQUIREMENTS\n\nThe Chinese nobility of more than a thousand years ago,who kept gold-fish as pets in basins scooped out of blocks of stone,could be caled thefirst aquarium keepers.However,the aquarium tank of popular conception,that is to say the rectangular container with sides of glass cemented into arigid frame,dates only from about the middle of the nineteenth century.  \nThe aquarium of the Victorians was a solidly constructed affair of ironand marble,or slate,invariably overdone with turned wood and metaltrimmings.The aquarium of today is of much simpler design and lessheavy in construction as,for example,the inexpensive tank made whollyof plastic.But the disadvantage of a plastic tank is that in course of timeit loses some of its transparency(and sometimes its shape)and is easilyscratched.On the other hand,a glass-sided aquarium,with a plastic-coated iron or anodized aluminium frame will stand up to normal cleaningwithout scratching and resists the enemy rust.Unquestionably,though,the fish tank with the stainless steel frame is king of all.It does not corrodeand should last a lifetime,but such a tank is never cheap.  \nLastly,there are tubes of silicone rubber sealant (aquarium quality)onthe market that make the construction of an all-glass tank quite easy.Indeed,the five sheets of glass can be taped(temporarily)and stucktogether inside an hour.With careful treatment such a tank will giveleakproof service for years.  \n# AVOIDING OVERCROWDING The oxygen fish extract from the wateris largely drawn from the contacting atmosphere.It follows,therefore,thatthe container with a large surface area makes the best home for fish.\n\nThe regular 15 gallons tank (24 in.by 15 in.by 12 in.)is an ideal sizefor the beginner.It will provide ample swimming space and oxygen for upto four 3 in.goldfish or about fifteen 12 to 2 in.tropical freshwater fish.  \nThat most warmwater fish can do with less oxygen and swimmingspace than coldwater fish(exotic or native)is a point in their favour.Then again most of them are extraordinarily beautiful,with body coloursa subtle or bold mixture of humming-bird or orchid tints.Therefore it isnot to be wondered at that tropical fish have become a popular decorativefeature in the modern home.  \nIMPORTANCE OF A COVER No aquarium is complete without aglass cover or non-toxic hood.It should sit loosely but not precariouslyon top of the aquarium to allow for circulation of the air.Apart frompreventing fish leaping out,a cover on an aquarium slows up loss of waterby evaporation and stops a lot of dust and other impurities from getting in.  \nHEATING A TROPICAL AQUARIUM There are many ways of heat-ing a tropical aquarium but the least troublesome way is to use an electricimmersion heater.Generally speaking,tropical fish do not demand muchheat.Indeed,a temperature of 75°F(24℃)is right for most speciesA 100-watt heater controlled by a thermostat is all that is required for a2 or 3 foot tank.The heater should be placed in a horizontal position near,or just touching,the planting medium.Another basic requirement is areliable aquarium thermometer.The disc-shaped thermometer made tostick on the outside of the glass is easier to read than the long-stemmedthermometer.Few tropical freshwater fish are t","cbCaik8yGU896C0n","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik8yGU896C0n","pdf",3542998,36,"English","# BASIC REQUIREMENTS\n## Avoiding
