To create a hole in the glass for a transit, you can use a glass drill. It is essential to drill slowly in glass and let the drill do the work. Always make sure that the drill stays wet, using water for example, to ensure smooth drilling.
Air outlets (such as air stones, fizzy stones, or linden wood) are useful for air pumps to increase oxygen levels in the aquarium water or in a quarantine tank.
One of the main benefits of using silicone hoses is that they remain flexible and do not harden over time. If you connect a silicone hose between the aquarium supply pump and the PVC pipes, it will absorb the pump's vibrations, making the system much quieter.
To achieve a strong, turbulent outflow from the lift pump, you can use a Random Flow Generator, which creates a variety of changing currents within the aquarium.
For those maintaining marine aquariums with growing corals, it is necessary to prune or frag them occasionally. For this task, frag stones, coral nippers, and cutting racks are highly practical tools.
