External Filters
Easy to operate and to maintain!
The new Tetratec EX Aquarium External Filters bring state of the art technology whilst offering great value for money. Every External Filter is delivered with all the required Filter media, hoses and adapter units.
This product line comprises three different Filters for Aquarium sizes from 60 to 500 litres. The Tetratec EX Aquarium External Filters are easy to put in operation and to maintain. They are also quiet and powerful. There are a lot of Aquarium External Filters, the most used are two:
classical Aquarium External Filter
hang on Aquarium External Filter
The classical Aquarium External Filter is formed by a hermetically closed container connected to the Aquarium by a way in and a way out pipe. They can be placed near the Aquarium or under it, and usually are employed for bigger Aquariums.
The hang on Aquarium External Filter is a quite new Aquarium Filtering system. It consists of a rectangular box that hangs on the Aquarium glass by a curved side. The pump is situated in the way in and gets water with a solid pipe, while the way out water creates small falls passing on the curved hang on side of the Filter. These Filters are really nice to see and are thought for small Aquariums, anyway due the hang on part they need to be placed on open Aquariums, or you have to modify the closure of the Aquarium top.
Aquarium External Filters usually provide a good water cleaning and chemical values control. Each brand has a different design of the Internal structure of the Aquarium Filter, anyway usually both classical and hang on Filters are divided into small removable baskets or sections. Surely External Filters are easier to clean because during this operation is impossible to dirty the Aquarium. Moreover often classical Aquarium External Filters have the possibility to close and leave attached at the Aquarium the way in and way out pipes, so you can clean the Aquarium Filter in another room, such garden or bathroom, without pouring out dirty water around.

Aquarium Lighting is one of the most important choices of equipment in a reef or fish only Aquarium. An often overlooked aspect of keeping a healthy fish Aquarium or reef Aquarium tank, your Aquariums lighting does not only affect the coloration of your specimens, but it deals with the timing of reproduction cycles, the food requirements, and the Aquariums algae tank production.
For Aquarium fish, the proper Aquarium Lighting is nescessary to provide certain nutritional requirements nescessary and it effects the reproduction cycle. It will directly affect the coloration for the fish in your Aquarium.
In reef Aquariums with live coral and invertebrates such as anemones and clams, the proper Aquarium Lighting intensity is required for your corals or invertebrates to be healthy. Many corals feed using a system called photosynthesis, and the proper Aquarium Lighting is nescessary to generate energy and good health. If your Aquarium corals and invertebrates do not received enough Light for a healthy photosynthesis, they will do poorly and eventually not survive.For Aquarium fish systems, the best Aquarium Lighting is Power Compacts. They come in many sizes and power ratings.
For begining aquarists who want to enjoy a reef Aquarium generally, the new T5 HO (High Output) fluorescent systems and familiar PC (Power Compact) fluorescent Lighting systems are great for Aquarium corals that require low to moderate Lighting, such as leather corals, mushrooms, plants, Xenia and polyps.
For corals requiring intense Aquarium Lighting such as SPS corals,(acropora's and montipora's), Tridacna Clams, and Carpet Anemones, metal halide Lighting systems, also called HQI systems, are the best route for success.
Many hobbyists will supplement metal halide Lighting with T5, VHO, or powercompact bulbs to simulate a dusk/dawn effect and to add more blue coloration to the Aquarium. Moonlights can also be added for nightime viewing and beautiful nightime affects.

Bird Lighting
How does Light influence the mental and physical health of birds?
Birds are very sensitive to Light and Light conditions. Their health and behavior are affected on a daily basis, as well as on a larger seasonal scale On a daily basis, Light determines the sleep cycle, signaling when to sleep and when to wake up ultimately affecting the quality of sleep. Restful sleep contributes to a healthy immune system, reduces fatigue, and minimizes stress. For general, non-breeding purposes, your bird needs 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness for restful sleep. On a seasonal level, the duration of Light photoperiod affects physical and mental health, as well as the reproductive cycle of birds. Changes in the length of daylight dictate various metabolic processes and trigger various physical and behavioral changes including breeding, molting, migrating, sleeping patterns and other daily behavior.

The biggest advantage of External Pond Filters is the improvement of the Pond water quality it is also possible to add different Pond Filter media to serve other purposes should you have a specific problem with your Pond. Having the External Pond Filter outside of the Pond makes the unit a lot easier to clean also the External Pond Filter supports the largest Pond fish load.
The only disadvantage of the External Pond Filter is the size and visibility however it is quite easy to disguise the External Pond Filter behind Pond plants making the Pond Filter less visible.
