Other indispensable element is a filter with more filtering capacity than the liters contained in the aquarium.If the aquarium is 100 liters, the filter must have a capacity to filter 140 liters.This way the nitrogen cycle stabilizes properly.they can be cascade or canister type, but the power head filters are not suitable.The noise and movement they produce in the water stress the fish angels that are typical of backwaters.

Through a Beneficial bacteria kit can accelerate the process and be able to i Enter after 30 days the first pezangel.If during the next 2 months there is no problem, it will be possible to introduce other fish-angels (if the capacity of the aquarium allows it), or other companions.

The fish-angels like that there are plants in the aquarium.It is vital to replace 20% of the water weekly.The manufacturer's instructions for total cleaning of the aquarium must be strictly followed.
