This book addresses both of these aspects of the marine aquarium hobby:In the first part of the book, several chapters are dedicated ...

No No lake in the world contains such a diversified and distinct community of cichlid fishes as Lake Malawi. Over the years Malawi cichlids, which are among the most colorful freshwater fishes known, have become very popular among aquarists as they are easy to maintain and breed in captivity. The total number of cichlid species in the lake is now estimated at about 1000, which is about 200 more than all the freshwater fish species of the North American Continent combined! And there is every ind...
Just the words “East African Rift Lake” convey sufficient magic to attract the attention of those that have never even heard of cichlids. Imagine a body of water as large as the state of Maryland, filled with crystal clear water — fresh water — and teeming with millions of gaudily-colored fishes. Just like a coral reef without the salt water, the currents, and the tides. And Africa has two such lakes, both about the same size and both with a unique set of fishes, almost all of them found...

This sale includes 10 pieces of 6” Cholla with a diameter of roughly 3/4”-1”. I have Cholla wood in all of my shrimp tanks and I do believe it is a must.Cholla wood provides a place for bio film to grow which is the number one food for shrimp.The wood provides a natural hide out for recently molted shrimp and berried females. It will gradually lower ph and soften water as well. These are nice thick pieces and should last quite a long time in your tank. You can even use them for a place t...
The Qanvee QS100A is a great filter for shrimp tanks and it is economical when having multiple tanks.It works like a regular sponge filter that is driven by an air pump. The difference with this particular filter is that it has two media cups that can be used for bio media. The advantage of having the bio media is in case you over rinse the sponges you should still have plenty of good bacteria within the cups. I like to pull half of the bio media out of the cups of an existing filter and use i...
