  2. Siphon tubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon_tubes

    Siphon tubes are a basic implement used in irrigation to transfer water over a barrier (such as the bank of a raised irrigation canal), using the siphon principle. At the simplest they consist of a pipe with no working parts. To work they rely on the water level in the canal being at a higher level than the water level in the field being irrigated.

    For example, if the tube from the upper reservoir to the top of the siphon has a much larger diameter than the taller section of tube from the lower reservoir to the top of the siphon, the shorter upper section of the siphon may have a much larger weight of liquid in it, and yet the lighter volume of liquid in the down tube can pull liquid up ...

  4. Recirculating aquaculture system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recirculating_aquaculture...

    All RAS relies on biofiltration to convert ammonia (NH 4 + and NH 3) excreted by the fish into nitrate. [4] Ammonia is a waste product of fish metabolism and high concentrations (>.02 mg/L) are toxic to most finfish. [5] Nitrifying bacteria are chemoautotrophs that convert ammonia into nitrite (NO 2 −) then nitrate (NO 3 −).

  5. Aquarium filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_filter

    Prefiltered water is delivered to a perforated plate (drip plate). Prefiltering may take place in the aquarium via a foam block or sleeve in the overflow, or weir siphon, or it may be prefiltered by filter wool resting on the perforated plate. The waste laden water from the aquarium spreads over the drip plate, and rains down through a medium.

  6. Swim bladder disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swim_bladder_disease

    A fish with swim bladder disorder can float nose down tail up, or can float to the top or sink to the bottom of the aquarium. [2] Swim bladder disease is a very common illness within aquarium fish that results in the bladder not functioning properly causing the fish to swim upside down.

  7. Siphon (mollusc) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon_(mollusc)

    Siphons in molluscs are tube-like structures in which water (or, more rarely, air) flows. The water flow is used for one or more purposes such as locomotion, feeding, respiration, and reproduction. The siphon is part of the mantle of the mollusc, and the water flow is directed to (or from) the mantle cavity. A single siphon occurs in some ...

  8. Marine aquarium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_aquarium

    A marine aquarium is an aquarium that keeps marine plants and animals in a contained environment. Marine aquaria are further subdivided by hobbyists into fish only (FO), fish only with live rock (FOWLR), and reef aquaria. Fish only tanks often showcase large or aggressive marine fish species and generally rely on mechanical and chemical filtration.

  9. Ammonia poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_poisoning

    The source of ammonia in fish tanks is fish's excretion. [1] Fish excrete ammonia as a nitrogenous waste product. A build-up of ammonia in the fish tank leads to ammonia poisoning. Species of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) can break down the ammonia and convert it to other, less toxic, nitrogen products.
