Aquatics

Tank size, cycling, water quality, heating, filtration, stocking, feeding, and stable routines for aquatic life.

Three essentials

Cycle the tank and understand ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, temperature, and source-water chemistry.
Choose stocking from adult size, behavior, and biological load—not the number of fish that fit visually.
Make changes gradually; stability is usually safer than repeatedly chasing perfect numbers.
