自从我听说Cubic Orbit 20水母罐以来,我所能想到的就是水母,水母,水母。我们首先遇到the Cubic Orbit 20 Jellyfish tanklast year at InterZoo and couldn’t be more excited to set it up when it it was received last week.
我们喜欢简单而精致的设计,它将水母罐的所有工作部件融合到一个有吸引力的设计中。轨道20是一个六加仑的水箱,是台式机,客厅或简单卧室水族馆的理想尺寸。如果您正在寻找更大的东西来获得更艳丽的水母,则立方体还制作了一个更大的型号,称为脉搏80,它是23加仑的全合一水母罐。
轨道20的圆形形状是形式符合功能的理想平衡。轨道20旨在创建一个克雷塞尔flow它指导水在圆形显示内和过滤室内的圆形运动中旋转。这种方法在所有水母罐中都是必不可少的,因为它可以防止水母撞到墙壁并破坏铃铛。
The filtration system of the Orbit 20 includes a sponge, porous ceramic rocks, and a small pump in the tank’s outer filter chamber. The small powerhead pump runs fairly quiet and all the components are hidden behind the removable magnetic faceplate. The filtration system works by having a sponge for mechanical filtration at the top, water first passes from the tank through the sponge and any larger detritus or food particles are stopped here.
然后,水穿过岩石下方,以进一步过滤水生物学,然后将水拉到泵中,并穿过“喷雾棒”,从而在水箱中产生Kreisel电流。喷雾棒上有一个可调节的红色螺钉,可让您控制水箱内的流速。
储罐的一个非常独特的方面是内置的LED照明系统。照明系统带有一个遥控器,可让您翻转各种颜色模式和显示设置。您可以将水箱放在15种颜色中的任何一个(包括简单的白光)上,也可以选择一种旋转的颜色模式,例如频闪或褪色。这个新颖的水母罐概念也可以作为超棒的情绪灯兼容,因为休闲观察者将不知道完全隐藏的滤波器系统。
We were pretty excited to set up our very first jellyfish tank, the instructions are easy to follow and it took less than an hour to assemble. Before using the Cubic 20 for live jellyfish you will have to let the tank condition for a week or more after you set it up, so it was only the initial tank build and preparation which took this long.
设置并运行水箱后,您仍然必须添加盐水和一些活岩/沙子,以开始多孔陶瓷岩石的细菌培养物。您将能够在当地的鱼类商店获得所需的一切,并且可以在这里查看。我们将发布第2部分。当我们的水箱处于条件状态并准备好一些果冻时。[[立方体这是给予的

我们还想说,我们发现了铜bic website to have lots of great information. In the resource section you can download the PDF version of the Orbit 20 and Pulse 80 User Manual, Jellyfish husbandry guides and this sweet intro to jellyfish poster. We’ve included this link which will take you directly to the download page where you can download your免费的高品质水母海报。
