The most important components of aquarium equipment are the devices for light, heat and water quality.
- Lighting: The aquarium is illuminated by various light sources. This is important in order to provide the aquatic plants and animals with sufficient light using lighting controls to simulate a day-night change so that a healthy biorhythm and photosynthesis can be maintained in the system.
- Heating: The water temperature must be kept constant within the range required by the animals used. Usually the temperature where fish feel most comfortable fluctuates only slightly. The aquarium control heater should be selected so that it automatically adjusts the temperature.
- Filters: These serve as clarifiers for the aquarium water by being the place of colonisation for pollutant-depleting bacteria, primarily due to the large surface area of the filter materials. They also filter suspended particles, plant residues, feed and fish excrement from the water. The filter ensures that the water values remain stable. Depending on the type of aquarium and filter material, different filter equipment is used for aquariums.
Additional aquarium equipment includes appliances such as automatic feeders, CO2 systems, oxidators and aerators . In our online shop you will find equipment for aquariums from well-known manufacturers such as Eheim as well as Juwel and Fluval.
