The Fascination

of Aquariums

Take a dive

with us

... Into the fascinating underwater

world of aquariums. Every

aquarium, be it small or large, has

its own special charm. A fantastic

wealth of colors and shapes,

an exciting variety of forms of

life and different behaviors.

This modern form of the art of

aquariums was made possible by

Ulrich Baensch, doctor of natural

sciences, the founder of Te t r a -

Werke and pioneer of the ﬁ rst

industrially manufactured food for

ornamental ﬁ sh. He succeeded

in developing a natural,

nourishing and wholesome

dry food appreciated by ﬁ sh.

breakthrough of aquariums as a

years now Te t r a is the hallmark

up the aquarium. Often the aim

Biotope Aquarium

The term is a bit misleading

because every aquarium is

a biotope. It means here that

ﬁ sh and plants come from the

same natural environment.

Cold or warm, freshwater or

saltwater. Even ﬁ sh have their

own speciﬁ c needs. There

are saltwater, cold water and

freshwater aquariums. And there

are even differences between

these aquariums:

These aquariums are often

not very appealing and have

is that of breeding ﬁ sh.

The classic. The most widespread

type of tropical freshwater

aquarium is especially

recommended for beginners.

Various types of plants and

different ﬁ sh species are kept

together in the same aquarium.

This means that they must not only

adapt their social behavior to one

another, but also the requirements

in terms of the water quality,

water temperature and aquarium

set-up must be the same.

Once you have chosen an

aquarium species, you must

consider the tank size, the

position and the equipment.

Single-Species Aquarium

Just one species is kept. They

are often ﬁ sh with special

requirements, which need to be

A good position is a room

corner without direct sunlight.

Important: sockets

near the aquarium!

Dark places are more suitable

for aquariums - and they even

have a more impressive effect.

Make sure that the carrying

capacity of the bottom

and the ﬂ oor cabinet is

adequate enough.

Once an aquarium is set up

and ﬁ lled, it can no longer be

moved - therefore, planning

is absolutely necessary when

choosing the position.

If possible, an aquarium

should not be placed near a

door, because any bustling

may frighten the animals.

Choosing the Position

To make ﬁ sh feel themselves at

home in your aquarium, a number

of factors need to be borne in

mind when choosing the position:

you need a ﬂ at, shockproof,

sturdy and level position with

sockets nearby. Never expose

an aquarium to direct sunlight.

Sunlight can trigger an undesired

proliferation of algae and lead to

the heating of the water. Consider

also the weight: besides the

empty weight of the tank there is

the equipment plus one kilogram

of weight for each liter of water.

Even a relatively small 80-liter

tank can weigh quite a lot and

can no longer be moved once

it is ﬁ lled. Therefore the ﬂ oor

cabinet must be able to bear

the relevant weight. Your local

dealer has tanks of all sizes and

all types of equipment. A good tip

is to place a panel of Styrofoam

between the ﬂ oor cabinet and the

aquarium to prevent point loads

and to level any unevenness.
