So you’re new to the art of aquascaping and want to delve deeper into this beautiful new world, but have no idea where to start. It can be very intimidating and confusing for someone who knows nothing about how to keep fish. There’s a lot to think about, more than you expect and the biggest advice to anyone starting out would be to do your research first before rushing into any decision making.
When thinking about your setup, the choices you make in certain areas will influence what choices you should be making in others. For example, certain types of fish will require a certain size tank to give them the freedom they need. If you plan on keeping live plants too, this will effect what substrate you choose. Your choice of plants may depend on whether the fish you’ve chosen are shy and need shelter under larger leaves. Depending on what plants you’ve chosen, you may need strong lighting and so on. Balance is the key and it may take awhile before .. [More]

Aquascaping is the craft of arranging aquatic plants, as well as rocks, stones, cavework, or driftwood, in an aesthetically pleasing manner within an aquarium—in effect, gardening under water. Aquascape designs include a number of distinct styles, including the garden-like Dutch style and the Japanese-inspired Nature style. Inspiration for many works come from both underwater locations but also natural scenes such as mountains, jungles, deserts, waterfalls and many others. Typically, an aquascape houses fish as well as plants, although it is possible to create an aquascape with plants only, or with rockwork or other hardscape and no plants.
Although the primary aim of aquascaping is to create an artful underwater landscape, the technical aspects of aquatic plant maintenance must also be taken into consideration. Many factors must be balanced in the closed system of an aquarium tank to ensure the success of an aquascape. These factors include filtration, maintaining c.. [More]

What is a terrarium? A terrarium is a small contained eco-system used to grow plants. Small amphibians can be added, along with fish to make a rainforest type living habitat. The species of amphibians should be docile and reclusive such as frogs, toads, salamanders and newts. These amphibians remain small enough that they will not outgrow the terrarium.
The type of plants used to fill your terrarium should be water loving bog plants. Moss, lichen, miniature ferns are good choices along with begonias and African violets. These soggy loving plants are manageable within a terrarium when pruned to prevent over growth.
If fish are desired, add small species such as guppies. Guppies are great for terrariums since they eat water insects, waste matter and the mites that can breed within the moist environment. If fish are added to the amphibian terrarium, feed the amphibians often to keep them from eating the small fish as dinner.

One of the newer additions to our canister filter line, is the UniMax Plus canister filter from AquaEl. AquaEl is still a relatively new name to the South African market, with a long history of quality products sold in Europe.
The UniMax Plus is one of the best canister filters to hit the South African market in recent years, with several features that make it both unique, and high performance.
The feature that really stands out with the UniMax plus, is its internal UV sterilizer, providing unrivaled water quality, with a single piece of equipment. Mechanical, Biological, Chemical, and Sterilization all in one.
Another cool feature of the UniMax, are the multiple intakes and outlets on the two larger models. This gives you much improved water flow in larger tanks, versus models with only a single inlet and outlet.
