Product Information

When populating an aquarium with fish, you can also focus on the surface area of ​​the water. The calculation of the area is quite simple: Before you buy fish and populate an aquarium, you first need to decide on the species composition of the fish house. Ideally, having compiled a list, show it to an experienced aquarist who will be able to figure out how correctly the pets are selected, taking into account:

In terms of features, you get a top-of-the-line adjustable filter to keep things clean – something Fluval is known for. Meanwhile, a powerful LED light keeps things bright with a 6500K temperature and 120° beam that evenly illuminates all the plants and fish in the tank. The day and night illumination modes mimic natural patterns, too, which is a nice touch. There’s also a feeding door for easy access, but sadly there’s no in-built heater. Fish will grow in size, which is something to be mindful of in these calculations, but if you are unsure it’s always best to enquire at your local fish emporium for advice. Make sure to ask how many of a particular breed would be a suitable number for your tank, and which combinations of breeds are a good match. What other features are important to a fish tank?Very small aquariums of 5 liters are very difficult to populate with fish. The main difficulties lie in maintaining the biological balance and the necessary temperatures, which is more difficult to do in a small volume than in a large one.

For tropical fish, you can accommodate more fish per litre: the ratio is 1 litre per 1cm of fish. So, you could safely hold two 10cm fish, three 5cm fish and five 3cm fish safely in a 50 litre tank. In large aquariums from 150 liters, it is better to keep large specimens of fish – cichlids (Acara, cichlosoma), goldfish, Labeo, from the bottom – Ancistrus. Small breeds will simply get lost in a large aquarium. There are a few different types of filters on the market and the type of filter you choose is going to dictate which aquarium water pump you are going to need. Consider the following set-ups: The Tetra Starter Line is a great choice for – as the name suggests – those looking for their first tank.

The size of filter for a 10-gallon tank varies depending on the type of aquarium you have. The most common sizes range from 2 to 4 gallons per hour (GPH) of flow rate. For small tanks, like those used for bettas and other nano fish, it is best to use a 2-3 GPH filter; however, if you are keeping larger fish or more active species in your 10 gallon tank, then a 3-4 GPH may be more suitable. When choosing an aquarium water pump for your set-up, you will need to have an idea about what flow rate you need:

Many fish tanks have additional equipment that requires the tank water to run through them. Extra filtration, UV sterilisers, protein skimmers, etc., will need water flow; meaning aquarium pump flow rate will need to be greater than what is needed for the main aquarium inhabitants. Have the heater located by the water outflow from the filter so that the moving water disperses the heated water throughout the aquarium. When selecting a filter for a 30 litre tank, it is important to ensure that you choose the correct size for your specific aquarium. A general rule of thumb is to select a filter with turnover rate (GPH) of at least four times the volume of your aquarium. For example, if you have a 30 litre tank, then look for an external or internal filter that has an output of 120 GPH (Gallons per Hour).When it comes to having fish in the family, there can be a lot of things to think about.
