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..

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 -..

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 ..
