Nounaquarium (plural aquaria or aquariums)
FrenchNounaquarium m. (plural aquariums)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. An aquarium (plural aquariums or aquaria) is a vivarium consisting of at least one transparent side in which water-dwelling plants or animals are kept. Fishkeepers use aquaria to keep fish, invertebrates, amphibians, marine mammals, turtles, and aquatic plants. The term combines the Latin root aqua, meaning water, with the suffix -arium, meaning "a place for relating to". An aquarist owns fish or maintains an aquarium, typically constructed of glass or high strength plastic. Cuboid aquaria are also known as fish tanks or simply tanks, while bowl-shaped aquaria are also known as fish bowls. Size can range from a small glass bowl to immense public aquaria. Specialized equipment maintains appropriate water quality and other characteristics suitable for the aquarium's residents. From Wikipedia under the

Q. A hotel my friend runs recently installed an aquarium in the lobby - a room that is fully lighted 24 hours per day. Does this have any impact on the fish? What about aquariums with owners that leave the fluorescent light on overnight or all the time? Do the fish ever get to sleep? Asked by Lost OC Boy - Tue Sep 18 12:38:49 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. You'll find that in a tank properly setup to be fully stress free, the fish will do fine - they don't need to sleep the way we do, though I'm sure I'm the only one who will post this opinion - it's easier to anthropomorphize the fish then to learn about their biology. Problems may arise if the fish have stresses in their environment like unsuitable tankmates or decoration, which they will then be exposed to 24 hours per day without reprieve. Actuall aquarium lights being on all the time will create massive algae growth, but that's not really a concern if most of the lighting will be indirect room lighting.

Q. I found some pretty cool stones, and I want to use them in my cichlid aquarium. They're not porous, they're slabs of rock. Right now I have them soaking in boiling water, and a high concentration of aquarium salt. Will they be safe in my aquarium after this? I expect the hot water and salt to kill any microorganisms that may hard my fish. I just hate paying $30 for a dumb rock at the store. How do they prepare their rocks to be aquarium safe? Asked by Leika S - Wed Oct 15 18:46:22 2008 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well you should of poured vinegar on the stones, and if they fizz or bubble that means they are not safe for your aquarium. Once you do the fizz test and the stone is safe then you can just boil it for a few minutes and it should be sterilized, then you should soak the rock in a bucket of old tank water, check the ph after a day, if it is any different from what your tank water is, then it is not safe. Once you test the rock a few times and the ph is stable, then you can rinse it a few times and add it to your tank knowing that it is safe.
