How to choose well your Fish SPA Simple Garra Rufa © www.simplegarrarufa.com [email protected] How to choose well your Fish SPA To choose well your Fish SPA it’s essential to select several criteriones: (1) The look - finishing - comfort (2) The space (3) The fishes viability (4) The filtration (5) The price 1) The look – Finition – Comfort It’s obvious that the first criterion is the look, your Fish SPA must please you and must be able to integrate into your Center. Should nevertheless be alert to certain criterions: -You are going to place your aquarium on the ground? It is imperative that it is based on a flat, smooth surface and not too compact. Indeed if the glass is not placed on a smooth surface the water weight (+ -150 kg) will exert pressure no regular on the glass that could peel off over time or more serious if a customer standing in the aquarium, the glass may break! A piece of wood or a thick foam perfectly make the case. In the picture on the left you can see a piece of wood as well as a decoration. It is important to NOT put real stones in your aquarium, the garra rufa is a groundfish species, therefore it will prefer eating the stones surface than the your customers feet! Simple Garra Rufa © www.simplegarrarufa.com [email protected] Analyze the right photography: The aquarium is put has even the ground on wood planks where we clearly see people walking. It is very bad for the aquarium, the silicone seals that secure the sides will be subjected to voltages which may eventually cause leakage. There is no decoration, the look is not pleasant. There are really few fishes, sad visual and poor-performing treatment. - The visual goes through a minimum of fishes. The most beautiful Fish SPA in the world with 50 Garra rufa will be looing like nothing. - The finishing is important, a SPA composed of a bare aquarium gives the effect of low-cost materials and does not always give confidence to the client. - Comfort is also important, don’t forget that your regular customers will spend 30 minutes twice per month on the SPA. The excitement of the first session will make with time place to the comfort eventually other needs, just as the framework will be essential.

No one imagines to relax himself in the background of a 2 m ².reduced You need to book space for your Fish SPA, don’t forget it’s essential to sit and move in an empty space around the Fish SPA , all of your clients are not 50 kg. Expect a vacuum + -80 cm at least one side of the SPA. Also pay attention to the view, your customers are going to spend a lot of time on the SPA, the vision of a wall joined at 30 cm from the end of the aquarium is not the best to keep coming them. It is better and more profitable to reduce the Fish SPA number for a unit' than "crushing" your customers with each other. 3) The fishes viability Without fish no work! It's a no brainer that it’s good to remember. The garra rufa is the centerpiece of your Fish SPA centre, you need to devote your full attention and all your care. You will need to clean your aquarium at least once a week, let's choose well the material of it. The simplest and most effective is glass, in case of sickness (Yes it can happen) it is the easier to disinfect. However, there are other materials on the market: -Resin / fiberglass: many aesthetical benefits but more delicate maintenance and more fragile especially to scratches and yellowing caused by the sun -Wood: many disadvantages for little benefit, to look level can give it other than a simple square drawings However at the maintenance level is problematic there is an exchange between the wood and the water that will appear over time. In case of illness it is virtually impossible to properly disinfect the aquarium.

Do not overload your SPA in fishes and don’t buy too small aquariums. In the example here we observe a Fish SPA's original form. The look is "perfect", the comfort seems to be well. But if you look a little closer we see that client is not sitting well she is on the edge chair and despite this quite uncomfortable her heels are not in the water, , favorite place! The distance between the water and the chair is too large. The small water amount available to the fishes cannot under any circumstances allow the viability of a sufficient number of garra rufa for Fish massage Simple Garra Rufa © www.simplegarrarufa.com [email protected] 4) Filtration Filtration is the heart of life in your aquarium, without high-performance filtration no living fish.

Many aquarists bragging you this filtration performance. But we don’t buy an aquarium to decorate our interior but well a work tool that must be effective without the need to devote 1 hour per day. Disadvantages of this filtration system: - Water evaporation, you need every day make the water inflow into the filter. Which in addition to the time requires intake of water conditioning products (Aquatan for example). - Filtration mass not preformed. Anyone can cut a foam and put it in a glass compartment. It is already more delicate with perlon (kind of cotton wool) that once wet will collapse under the weight of the water to become ineffective ball. Water will always choose the easiest path, so if your filter systems are not adjusted exactly, the water will bypass them and they will become unnecessary. - Ceramics to bacteria, they are generally stored in a "net". - - With impurities entering the filter, the net became very quickly a physical filter which will force us to clean it. If we clean up the net, we need to get out of the water rinse with osmoser water and put it back into the filter. This will kill many bacteria and no doubt stress them. Where risk NO2 peak and risk of loss of the entire fish in the aquarium!

Filter systems are generally deposited on stackable baskets. Disadvantages of this filtration system: - The price, external systems are relatively expensive but high- performing. In case of power failure may be reboot manually the system. Adding bacteria directly on ceramics requires to open the filter. Advantage of this filtration system: - - Closed system, no daily operation Preformed filter system, no risk of inefficiency -Spaced and easy maintenance, you just need to change filters + - all 4 months and perlon all the 8 months for physical filters (black). Simple Garra Rufa © www.simplegarrarufa.com [email protected] - Ceramics are placed on trays, no unnecessary physical filters.
