ORNAMENTAL AQUACROPS
• Multimillion dollar industry• Primarily for recreational purposes• Also for education and research• Two main areas are fish keeping and
commercial production• Fish keeping is caring for ornamental fish
species as a hobby• Commercial producers breed and market
organisms for the fish keepers

ORNAMENTAL AQ SYSTEMS
• Water container
• Satisfactory water source
• Equipment to maintain water quality

AQUARIUM SET-UP
• Proper site selection (convenient water source, electricity, water drains, etc.)
• Need GFCI electrical outlets
• Strong supports and tank cushion
• Add water, then substrate and filter
• Aeration and heater
• Accessories (covers and lights)

WATER FILTRATION
• Mechanical – passing water through materials that remove suspended solids
• Biological – use of bacteria and other living organisms to convert harmful substances to less harmful forms
• Chemical – use of chemical substances to purify water

MECHANICAL FILTRATION
• Filter media may be gravel, sand, metal or plastic screens, sponge, or floss
• Media must be regularly cleaned or replaced

BIOLOGICAL FILTRATION
• Uses bacteria to convert ammonia to nitrite and then to nitrate
• Crawfish and snails help keep tank clean

CHEMICAL FILTRATION
• Chemicals include ozone, ultraviolet light, activated charcoal, and special chemicals

SPECIES SELECTION FACTORS
• Temperature – tropical versus temperate
• Salinity – freshwater, brackish, or saltwater
• Reproduction – livebearers versus egg-layers
• Size – size of fish needs to match tank
• Feeding habits – carnivores, herbivores, or omnivores

SPECIES SELECTION FACTORS
• Behavior – some species are aggressive
• Physical appearance – some species are “fancy” (unusual color, shape, etc.)
