Często zadawane pytania
Why subtract 10% from tank volume?
Substrate, decorations, and air space occupy roughly 10% of the total volume, reducing usable water.
What is the 1cm fish per 1-2L rule?
This guideline suggests stocking density: 1 cm of fish length needs 1-2 litres of water for health and waste management.
How do I convert between gallons and litres?
1 US gallon = 3.785 litres; 1 imperial gallon = 4.546 litres.
