Algae in the Planted Aquarium-- Guitarfish. Introduction Every aquarium keeper has likely had to deal with an algae problem. In a planted aquarium, an even more complex set of variables can easily go out of whack, and end in a sad algae state. I’ve combined information from a few different websites, added some personal experience, and have hopefully assembled a complete reference for the most common types of algae seen in the planted aquarium, along with their causes and cures. This is an ever-evolving document, so if you feel anything is incorrect or misleading, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment with your correction.
Table of Contents Black Brush/Beard (Rhodophyta) Black brush, or BBA, algae can be one of a number of specific genera of “red” algae in the Rhodophyta family. Cause: Nutrient Imbalance – potentially excess N, P, Fe. Cure: Increase CO2 – This will stimulate plant growth, which should help the plants out-compete the algae for resources.Excel/H202 treatment – Use a syringe to spot treat problem areas. Causes: Cures: DIY Aquarium Background. By Chris Greenwood - Just thought I would post some images of a DIY background I put together six months ago on a Tang. display tank. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. I realise that this is not too different from other plans on the web, however, this was done using local materials.
Stage 1 Using a 50mm thick block of Styrofoam I carved out the rock shapes using a screwdriver and then applied a heat gun to the surface to smooth out the foam. Stage 2 Using an epoxy resin to which I added some black oxide, I applied a single coat. Stage 3 Second coat of coloured epoxy resin was applied. Stage 4 Before the second coat of resin set I covered the sections in river sand. Stage 5 This shows the sections dried with the sand embedded into the resin.
Stage 6 The sections were then siliconed into the back of the tank and left to dry. Stage 7 Tank installed, decorated and filled with water. Total costs, sources & time Parts and Labour. Total $87.80NB. Same tank, several months on. Make Your Own Background From Styrofoam (DIY DECORATION PROJECTS) I had seen several very nice backgrounds made from styrofoam in various tanks so when I bought my new 720 liter I decided to make one. This is how it went. I bought six thick pieces of Styrofoam that measured 120x60x10 centimeters and one beer. The Styrofoam will become the background for the tank and the beer is for drinking while working on it. Since the tank measures 200x60x60 centimeters I had to cut them to fit the tank properly. Since I needed to place two pieces on top of each other I placed the joints uneven to make it stable. Before finally placing the sheets together I applied plenty of silicone sealant. Now the sheets of Styrofoam are glued together. Three sheets covering the whole length of the tank and some extra pieces at the far ends where I plan to cover power heads, heaters and other equipment.
In this corner I will place the hose from the canister filter and a heater. I have now started the actual carving; there are a lot of Styrofoam pieces flying around. All done. 3D polyurethane foam background. In the African cichlid breeding many of the fish keepers are not satisfied only with one-colour background of an aquarium so that they buy some of the commercially offered products imitating the African lakes environment. These backgrounds are mostly plastic or laminated casting. Many of them are very good, however, they are not always available for everybody and often are expensive.
Those are the reasons why skilful fish keepers are trying to make some similar background or also better looking one and cheaper. There are many technologies and materials useable for this purpose and it depends on one’s skills. I had decided to make the polyurethane (PU) background after the study of a very few sources in 2001. The background described here was made in 2001 and is not used more. Material preparation and making the background base I had used 2 cm thick polystyrene board as a base of the background. Warning! TIP: I have been often asked which kind of foam was used. Warning!
