  • FIGURING OUT WHEN AMMONIUM LEVELS ARE TOO HIGH

    FIGURING OUT WHEN AMMONIUM LEVELS ARE TOO HIGH… September 10, 2012 I had a minor freakout at the polytunnel today when on testing the ammonium levels were at 3mg/l. So why are the fish not even the teenyest bit dead? Here they all are – not one lost by the way since aquiring them… yet even…

  • The respiratory system

    The respiratory system Oxygen and carbon dioxide dissolve in water, and most fishes exchange dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide in water by means of the gills. The gills lie behind and to the side of the mouth cavity and consist of fleshy filaments supported by the gill arches and filled with blood vessels, which give gills a bright red colour. Water taken in continuously through…

    Fish gill 5 languages Article Talk Read Edit View history From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia See also: Fish respiration Gill arches bearing gills in a pike. Gills allow fish to breathe underwater. Respiratory mechanism in bony fish The fish draws oxygen-rich water in through the mouth (left). It then pumps it over gills so oxygen enters the bloodstream,…

  • Module 6 – Fish

    Fish If you’ve never kept fish before, you may be faintly hesitant at the prospect. Relax! When you operate authentic iAVs, you are engaging in freshwater aquaculture in its simplest and most cost-effective way. Freshwater aquaculture has been the subject of many doctorates…and its experts have published many substantial books. My point is that in…

  • Module 2 – Water

    Water Water that is suitable for sandgardening is free of chemicals and pollutants.  It’s potable – which means that it’s fit for human consumption and, – by extension – fit for growing food. Water sources include: Rainwater Mains – the municipal supply Rivers and lakes Wells and ponds There’s everything to like about rainwater. It’s free – and it’s the…

  • Module 1 – Sand

    Sand No Sand – No Civilisation Sand is a benign substance that resides in the back of our minds. For most of us, it holds no more day-to-day interest than the rocks and roads – and the other physical aspects of our environment. We know that it exists but it hardly warrants a thought. But,…

  • 5.4.1. Nitrate in Depth

    Predicate All discussions of research papers on nitrate must be predicated with a caution. The 10 ppm of nitrate of the scientists, (the Hach test kit and the Lamotte test kit) is a 44 ppm test level of nitrate via the “normal” aquarium test kits (API aquarium test kit, the Seachem Multitest kit, the Sera…
