  4. Use live plants, very simple, just use balls to put in the sand and floating nutrition, you don't need CO2 unless you want really beautiful plants, but the fish makes some ammounts of CO2

  8. You can speed up the cycle so it's only a week with some modern things but it's better to let it run for a month.

  11. Is it safe to have a treadmill right next to an aquarium if the impact on the ground makes the water splash around inside? I haven't found anything online that says to avoid high impact activity around an aquarium (aside from the danger of actually running into the aquarium and knocking it over).

  12. Good vid but they forgot to mention a couple of things:
    1. Be sure your hands are clean and well-rinsed. Traces of soap or lotion can harm the fish.
    2. Never use soap or chemicals to clean the aquarium.

  13. Long story short- Just keep track of your fish and you should be okay. Make sure their tank is clean and make sure your not feeding them to much. If this help- you could get a notebook and drot down what year it is and what day. Also you can keep track of ammo and such. that helps me.researching fish is good to because then youll know what they need and how they live. Fish are my favorite aniamles.

  15. It's an Eclipse 2 I believe I own one, they are amazing! The only thing you need is to replace the filter every 2-4 weeks with an "H" size filter.
