  2. Aquarium filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_filter

    The pump should only be powerful enough to push the water through the filtering material as well as overcome the drag in the intake and return pipes. This makes canister filter pumps virtually insensitive to the height difference between the aquarium and the filter (although exceeding the manufacturer-specified height limit can lead to leaks).

  3. Filter feeder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_feeder

    Unlike the other large filter feeders, it relies only on the water that is pushed through the gills by swimming; the megamouth shark and whale shark can suck or pump water through their gills. [6] Manta rays can time their arrival at the spawning of large shoals of fish and feed on the free-floating eggs and sperm. This stratagem is also ...

  4. Notonectidae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notonectidae

    Notonectidae is a cosmopolitan family of aquatic insects in the order Hemiptera, commonly called backswimmers because they swim "upside down" (inverted). They are all predators and typically range from 0.5 to 1.5 cm (0.2–0.6 in) in length. [1]

  5. Hydrachnidia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrachnidia

    They prey on other water mites, small crustaceans (e.g. cladocerans, ostracods and copepods), the eggs, larvae and pupae of aquatic insects, and non-arthropod invertebrates such as rotifers, nematodes, and oligochaetes. The egg-eating water mites often prey on the eggs of the same insects they parasitise as larvae.

  6. Aquatic insect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_insect

    In these insects, the volume of the film is small enough, and their respiration slow enough, that diffusion from the surrounding water is enough to replenish the oxygen in the pocket of air as fast as it is used. The large proportion of nitrogen in the air dissolves in water slowly and maintains the gas volume, supporting oxygen diffusion ...

  7. Freshwater aquarium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_aquarium

    For a tropical fish tank, maintaining a warm environmental temperature ranging between 75 and 86 °F (24 to 30 °C) enables different tropical fish to thrive at different temperatures. [2] Aquarium substrate usually consists of sand or gravel. Aquarium substrate is important for the fish's health and replicating their natural environment.

  8. Water aeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_aeration

    A fountain consists of a means of spraying the water upwards into the air. Typically this may be done using a motor that powers a rotating impeller. The impeller pumps water from the first few feet of the water and expels it into the air. [4] This process utilizes air-water contact to transfer oxygen.

  9. Lysmata amboinensis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysmata_amboinensis

    L. amboinesis exhibiting cleaning behaviour in the Sea Life Centre of Oberhausen, Germany. Many species of Lysmata, including L. amboinesis, are commonly kept in salt water aquaria; they are safe and beneficial since they will clean both the tank and fish but not harm corals. For these reasons they are often kept in both home and public aquaria ...
