Text Appearing Before Image:
120 AQUARIUM APPLIANCES and particles to rush into tube. Replace thumb, lift out and empty. The capacity of the tube can be considerably increased by heating the centre over a Bunsen flame and blowing a sort of bulb. A blown dip tube, with a specially designed section enlarged to about the size of a duck's egg, may be purchased from stock.
Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 97. Safety Rasor Blade Aquarium Glass Cleaner Glass Cleaners. One of the best devices for cleaning the inside glass of straight aquaria is a safety razor blade secured in a holder which can be obtained in hardware stores for a few cents. A blade may be used directly in the hand, but in that case it is better to dull one edge first in order to avoid cutting the fingers. A chore ball of woven copper, such as used in kitchens is most excel- lent for cleaning either straight or curved sides of an aquarium. A dime rubbed flat against the glass will clean it. Siphon. When much dirt needs to be removed or the aquarium emptied, a siphon should be used. This consists simply of a hose sufficiently long to reach from the bottom of the aquarium, up over the edge and down again to a point near the floor. The longer the drop, the more rapid the flow. Fill tube with water, close both ends by finger pressure, insert one end in the aquarium and hold the other as low as possible. Simultaneously release the ends of tube and the water will flow as long as there is water in the aquarium at a higher point than the discharging end of tube. Care should be taken not to draw in fish or snails.
