If you start a new hobby such as learning an instrument or learning to SCUBA dive, you don’t start by learning rad guitar solos or diving as deep as you want, you have to start slow – walk before you can run. But for some reason the reef aquarium hobby has new aquarists start with building a full-on reef tank and all the corals, fish, invertebrates and equipment needed to keep them alive.
纳米水族馆是新礁的正确方向迈出的一步,但我们认为,通过从裸露的基本原理开始,可以更轻松地学习珊瑚的需求。For several years now we’ve championed the concept of a coral ‘showcase’ aquarium or ‘zero-reef’ which is little more than a glass box with a couple corals in it, for which you barely need a small filter and basic small light to keep everything coasting and thriving.
在我们的最新视频中,我们分享了我们的六个月大的20加仑珊瑚展示水族馆,该水族馆自从我们进行设置以来一直处于巡航控制状态,这确实变得很特别。Ultum Nature Systems 20加仑水族馆仅由匹配的Uns Delta 60罐过滤器提供动力,该过滤器从未清洗过,它被我们在亚马逊上以不到五十美元的价格购买的便宜的25瓦Luxcare LED带灯照亮。
我们不会测试水,也不会剂量任何添加剂,因为我们每周只用现有的礁石罐中的水更换几乎所有的新万博登录网址水,它有助于将化学反应重置为已知的理想天然海水价值。成功的部分原因是,这是一个裸露的骨头,几乎没有can出错,但珊瑚非常随和,这并没有什么伤害真菌, Fox and Elegance corals and one yellow scrollTurbinaria。
尽管试图使水箱尽可能最小,我们仍然设法在水箱底部培养了珊瑚藻的体面增长,这可能要归功于非常轻的过滤和较低的强度照明。这个珊瑚展示的水族馆使我们有动力尝试使用更苛刻的珊瑚来重新创建这种设置,因为我们将更多的装备拼凑起来,因此请注意下一个带有更多珊瑚色和较少珊瑚礁的Showcase Aquarium。
