The filtration system to keep LiveAquaria up and running is amazing. There isn’t anything else that can compare that is selling livestock commercially. To give you an example of how big LiveAquaria is, they have 1200 fish in stock and over 10,000 corals and frags, all that livestock needs a powerful filtration system. Here they use RK2 protein skimmers and fluidized reactors that keep the water squeaky clean. Ultraviolet light is also used as a means of filtration and they have banks of these lighting units stacked up which looks like large artillery shells. The complete filtration system handles over 20,000 gallons of water and has a turnover of 10-15 times per hour. To see specific specs hit up the read link below.
