How to Build Your Own Fish Tank

If the fish to build its own tanks, only a few really important to do this. Anyway, before you buy your fish need to sit down and make a detailed plan about how to start up the aquarium is one of the following three questions and answers:

     1. I do freshwater and saltwater aquarium want? (This is probably the most important issue. Both fish and plants in the natural habitat can only survive in the freshwater and saltwater fish and plants can not be mixed with each other.)
     Two. Such as large-scale tank do I want? How many gallons of water to hold it? (Large, aquarium, the more weight it. Never underestimate the weight of the 'number of liters of water' when calculating the weight of the aquarium. Per U.S. gallon, 3,8 liter of 3,8 kg .'s Stand fish tank, 55 gallon water tank, the water company to carry in addition to the fish tank is 208 kilometers!)
     Three. Only one do I choose my fish tank and several different species? (Not all species are the things you want peace. At the wrong mix of fish and how to attack each other with each other, instead of Getting a).

The three answered questions after probably know, is what you want. The next step is to collect all the power, you must build a fish tank. You must. At least five pieces of equipment following:

1. Fish tank itself - only to use the tank is being filled with water! Never the intention to divert some of the tank to use! It is an image of a dozen liters of water to pour on the floor because the container you use (perhaps to save some of the Diamondbacks) burst under the weight of large-scale?

Two. Fish tank stand - because they know the ratio, now a fish tank, you can calculate how much of the fish tank to withstand the weight of the stands.

Three. Filtration system - without water filtration system to the tank can become cloudy. Filtration system that depends on how much water to filter. Filtration system is too weak, the filtered water is low by all the things that are ineffective. A good filtration system also provides fresh oxygen.

Four. Heating - popular fish species such as the natural environment that represents a specific temperature. With fish can not survive in the water in the aquarium either warm or too cold. Temperature fluctuations have a similar effect, it is certain why the temperature should be provided. Tropical fish are most likely to prefer warm water.

Five. Light - light system in your aquarium fish and plants important to us. More like an animal, fish, day and night cycle and they were all negative reaction to failure. What was your reaction to the sun rises, the random set?

Now what kind of fish tank that you know you want to have any kind of equipment needed by their own means to build a water tank.
