The Aquarium Desing Group/ Amano

The popularity of nano and mini-style aquariums has grown tremendously in recent years. These smaller aquariums are can be kept in any size space and are easy to re-work or start a whole new layout. Smaller, more accessible rocks and driftwood pieces are generally easier to come by as well, so a high-impact hardscape and more realized overall composition can be achieved with greater ease than when working with a larger tank. Here we have grouped together all the ADA and Do!Aqua MINI Cube Garden and Cube Glass aquarium tanks, glassware, accessories, and even select packaged stone and driftwood offerings. Our "complete system" packages even include the driftwood and/or stone. Our goal is to make this a one-stop solution for access to the very finest mini/nano tanks in the true ADA Nature Aquarium style. The heart of the ADA Lighting System is the unique, true 8000 Kelvin lamp. Standard wattage fluorescents, Power Compact, and the flagship HQI halogen all feature the most ideal color temperature of 8000 K developed after extensive research of the nature of the underwater light field in several of the world's most prominent regions for aquatic plants. ADA Lighting System fixtures are extremely high-quality, and feature external ballasts on all suspended fixtures, which ensures lower fixture weight and more flexible suspension options. The sleek architectural design is both attractive and highly effective in the dissipation of heat. The ADA basic concept is a high-technology lighting system that meets the demands of aquatic plants. For efficient fertilization of nutrient elements which your plants require at each stage of their growth. For healthy growth of aquatic plants, a balanced supply of trace elements such as Iron, Boron or Molybdenum is necessary in the water. Furthermore, Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium which are often called the three major (or macro) nutrients for plants, are also often found lacking in the aquarium. ADA adopted the STEP fertilization system which corresponds to each stage of growth, or growth Step of your aquatic plants. The Green Brighty STEP Series, enables efficient supplement of nutrient elements to meet the requirements of all your aquatic plants which change in time. A full line of specially formulated supplements were developed also to target specific issues such as color loss, stress after trimming, and algae resistance. The ADA filtration system combines the sheer beauty and practical function of Lily Pipes- special handmade glass material filter inflow and outflow- with filter media of exceptional quality and purpose. From so many years of aquascaping and layout experience, ADA realized and sought product-specific solutions to a variety of needs unique to live-planted aquariums. At the core of ADA philosophy is the nurturing and preservation of the many beneficial bacteria and microorgansims that are at the heart of a successful and healthy aquarium. The art and science of the Nature Aquarium style are in perfect harmony with the ADA filtration system.
