Water Parameters: Understanding pH, GH, KH, CO2, and others수질 변수: pH, GH, KH, CO2 등 이해하기 Water chemistry is one of the most misunderstood areas of shrimp-keeping, especially when it comes the pH, GH/KH, and the KH-pH relationship.The GH/KH water test kit is often the most neglected kit, and, hence, arguably, the most neglected part of the water chemistry.To get started let's talk briefly about w..

DIY CO2 generator & principle (자작이탄 만들기 & 원리) Although CO2 is an option for fishkeeping, almost essential!Mainly, Carbon dioxide is an essential component for plants to make photosynthesis. 물생활에 선택이지만 거의 필수적인 이산화탄소!즉, 이산화탄소라는 것은 수초들이 광합성 작용을 위해 필요한 필수성분이다. ★ Photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide + Water --- by Light ----> Glucose + Oxygen + slightly water (view of Bioscience)★ 광합성 작용: 이산화탄소 + 물 ---- 빛에..

Green Spot, Choleochaete orbicularis(녹점이끼) Green spot algae are very commonly seen on the glass of tanks when there hasn’t been a water change in a while, or when an inadequate fertilization scheme has been conducted. GSA also appears on long-lasting leaves, such as Java Fern, Anubias, and Bolbitus. 녹점이끼는 환수를 하지 않았거나 토양이 비옥하지 않을 때 수조의 유리에서 흔히 볼수 있다. 녹점이끼는 또한 Java Fern, Anubias, and Bolbitus와 같이 ..

Green Dust Algae, GDA (녹색이끼) Green Dust Algae (GDA) is a “dusty” green film that appears on the surface of the glass. It’s caused by zoo-spores, and seems to avoid attaching to hardscape items or plant leaves. (GDA/녹색이끼)는 유리 표면에 나타나는 녹색막 (먼지)이다. 녹색이끼는 포자가 원인이고, 식물의 잎이나 조경용품에 접촉을 피해야 할 듯 하다. Causes: Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to locate a concrete cause for GDA. 원인 불행하게도, 나는(필자)는 GDA의 구체적인..

Fuzz algae(솜털이끼, 솜털조류) Fuzz algae often show up on plant leaves giving their edges a slightly fuzzy appearance. 솜털이끼/솜털조류는 약간의 솜털 모양을 가진 식물의 가장자리에서 나타난다. Causes: Nutrient Imbalance – Strive for the following nutrient levels: N (10-20ppm), P (0.5-2 ppm), K (10-20 ppm), Ca (10-30 ppm), Mg (2-5ppm), Fe (.1ppm). Low CO2 – Strive for 20-30 ppm concentration of CO2, as permitted by fauna. 원인: 영양 불균형 -..

Cladophora(클라도포라도) Cladophora is by far the toughest algae to remove from the aquarium. Forming green, tough, wool-like mats, it seems to favor intermingling itself into hair-grass, substrate, and hardscape items. 클라도포라는 물생활에서 제거하기 힘든 조류다. 녹색, 거친, 울같은 매트를 형석하고, 헤어그라스, 조경용폼등에 석여있는 것을 선호하는 것 같다. Causes: Marimo Balls – Being in the same family as these algae balls, they can sometimes introduce Clad..

Cyanobacteria(시아노박테리아) While often referred to by aquarists as the algae, Blue Green Algae (BGA) is, in fact, a bacterial slime that can easily coat everything in your tank. Appearing as either a green, black, or purple coating, BGA is perhaps best known for the unique earthy smell that it has when pulled from the tank. As a nitrogen-fixing bacteria, it will fully deplete your water column of an..

Brown Algae (Diatoms)갈조류 (규조류) Brown Algae, or diatoms, often present themselves as a brown, muddy, muck that covers plant leaves and hardscape items. It is rare to be seen in a fully established aquarium. 식물의 잎과 조경용품을 덮는 진흙과 배설물에서 갈조류(갈색이끼) 또는 규조류는 자주는 나타난다. 이러한 갈조류는 완전하게 물잡힌 수조에서는 보기 드물다. Causes: Newly setup tank – Aquariums that have just been set up seem to be prone to diatom algae. Excess n..

Black Brush/Beard, Rhodophyta (붓이끼) Black brush, or BBA, algae can be one of a number of specific genera of “red” algae in the Rhodophyta family. Most of the algae in this family are actually marine, but a few freshwater species exist that particularly target our planted aquariums. This algae may be black, brown, red, or green in coloration, and can quickly coat your plants and hardscape if not ..
