An aquarium is a vivarium of any size having at least one transparent side where aquatic vegetation or pets are kept and exhibited. Fishkeepers use aquaria to keep seafood, invertebrates, amphibians, aquatic reptiles such as turtles, and aquatic plants. The word "aquarium", coined by English naturalist Philip Henry Gosse, combines the Latin main aqua, meaning drinking water, with the suffix -arium, signifying "a place for associated with". The aquarium rule was fully developed in 1850 by the chemist Robert Warington, who explained that plants added to drinking water in a container would produce enough oxygen to aid animals, as long as the numbers of animals did not grow too large.The aquarium trend was launched in early on Victorian England by Gosse, who created and stocked the first general public aquarium at the London Zoo in 1853, and published the first manual, The Aquarium: An Unveiling of the Magic of the Deep Sea in 1854.An aquarium is a water-filled reservoir in which fish swim about. Small aquariums are held in the home by hobbyists. There are larger general population aquariums in many places. This kind of aquarium is a building with fish and other aquatic animals in large tanks. A big aquarium may have otters, turtles, dolphins, and other sea pets or animals. Most aquarium tanks also have plants.An aquarist is the owner of fish or retains an aquarium, typically constructed of cup or high-strength acrylic. Cuboid aquaria are also called fish tanks or just tanks, while bowl-shaped aquaria are also known as seafood bowls. Size can range between a small wine glass bowl, under a gallon in size, to immense public aquaria of thousands of gallons. Specialized equipment retains appropriate drinking water quality and other characteristics well suited for the aquarium's residents.Aquascaping is the craft of organizing aquatic plants, as well as rocks, rocks, cavework, or driftwood, in an aesthetically satisfying manner within an aquarium--in result, gardening under drinking water. Aquascape designs include a number of distinct styles, including the garden-like Dutch style and the Japanese-inspired characteristics style.Typically, an aquascape homes fish as well as plant life, although it is possible to produce an aquascape with plant life only, or with rockwork or other hardscape no plants.Although the primary aim of aquascaping is to create an artful underwater panorama, the technical aspects of container maintenance and the development requirements of aquatic plant life are also taken into account.Many factors must be well balanced in the sealed system of an aquarium fish tank to ensure the success associated with an aquascape. These factors include purification, maintaining carbon dioxide at levels sufficient to support photosynthesis underwater, substrate and fertilization, light, and algae control.Aquascape hobbyists trade vegetation, conduct contests, and share photos and information via the web.The United States-based Aquatic Gardeners Association has about 1,200 members.Dutch styleAquarium densely filled with clumps of fine-leaved crops, some with renewable leaves and some with red leaves.

This style was developed in the Netherlands starting in the 1930s, as freshwater aquarium equipment became commercially available.It stresses plants located on terraces of different levels, and frequently omits stones and driftwood. Linear rows of vegetation working left-to-right are known as "Dutch avenues". Although some plant types are widely-used, one typically recognizes nicely trimmed groupings of vegetation with fine, feathery foliage, such as Limnophila aquatica and various types of Hygrophila, along with the use of red-leaved Alternanthera reineckii, Ammania gracilis, and assorted Rotala for color features.More than 80% of the aquarium floor is protected with crops, and little if any substrate is still left visible.Extra tall growing vegetation that cover the trunk glass originally served the goal of hiding large equipment behind the fish tank.
