摘要： A top member for a terrarium is disclosed along with the terrarium. The top member includes a frame member positioned around an upper periphery of the terrarium. The frame member contains a recess. A divider spans across the upper periphery of the terrarium. The top member also has a pair of brackets each having a first portion sized to fit into the recess of the frame member and a second portion secured to the divider by fasteners. The top member further has a pair of covers secured between the frame member and the divider which allow for the passage of air into and out of the terrarium. The top member also has a pair of attachment members each surrounding one of the pair of covers. The pair of attachment members engages with the frame member and the divider to hold the pair of covers secure.

摘要： A filter system for filtering a fluid is disclosed which includes a sock tank fluidly connected to a baffle tank. The sock tank contains a sock filter for separating particles of a certain size from an unclean fluid. The unclean fluid can come from a container holding a large quantity of fluid, such as an aquarium. The filtered fluid from the sock tank is then routed into the baffle tank. The baffle tank has a first chamber in fluid communication with a second chamber. The first chamber contains a bacteria culture for biological filtration of the incoming fluid. First and second baffles are positioned within the first and second chambers and function to regular the flow of filtered fluid from the first chamber to the second chamber. The first and second baffles also control the fluid level in the first chamber so that the bacteria culture is fully immersed in fluid at all times. This is needed so that the bacteria culture can function properly. The filter system further includes a return conduit for routing filtered fluid from the second chamber of the baffle tank back into the container holding a large quantity of fluid.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于过滤流体的过滤系统，其包括流体连接到挡板箱的袜子槽。 袜子槽包含用于将一定尺寸的颗粒与不洁的流体分离的袜子过滤器。 不洁的液体可以来自容纳大量流体的容器，例如水族箱。 然后将来自袜子罐的过滤流体输送到挡板箱中。 挡板箱具有与第二室流体连通的第一室。 第一个室含有用于生物过滤进入流体的细菌培养物。 第一和第二挡板被定位在第一和第二腔室内，并且使过滤流体从第一腔室到第二腔室的流动规律起作用。 第一和第二挡板还控制第一腔室中的液体水平，使得细菌培养物始终完全浸没在流体中。 这是需要的，以便细菌培养可以正常运作。 过滤系统还包括用于将过滤的流体从挡板箱的第二室引回到容纳大量流体的容器中的返回管道。

摘要： An overflow system is disclosed for use with a tank having a side wall. The overflow system includes an overflow device having a front wall, a back wall, a first sidewall and a second sidewall all secured to a bottom wall and extending upward therefrom to create a chamber having an open top. The front wall, back wall and first and second sidewalls have a plurality of slots formed therethrough. The overflow device is positioned in the tank such that a portion of the plurality of slots is disposed below the fluid line of the tank so as to receive fluid from the tank into the chamber. The bottom wall has an enlarged aperture formed therethrough. The overflow system also includes a first aperture formed through the sidewall of the tank. The first aperture is positioned below the bottom wall of the overflow device. An attachment mechanism attaches the bottom wall of the overflow device to an inside surface of the sidewall of the tank. The attachment means passes through the first aperture.

摘要： An overflow box and a filter system for an aquarium are disclosed which quiets the removal of waste water from an aquarium. The aquarium has a bottom wall, a sidewall, a first aperture formed through the sidewall, and a peripheral rim. The overflow box has a bottom wall, a front wall, a back wall and two sidewalls. The front wall has a first opening formed therethrough which is coaxially aligned with the first aperture formed in the sidewall of the aquarium. The bottom wall of the overflow box has a plurality of slip fittings formed therein. The plurality of slip fittings are of at least three different sizes. One of the slip fittings is open to water flow while the remaining slip fittings are initially closed to water flow by a thin wall. The overflow box also has an open top.

摘要： A removable support assembly for an aquarium is disclosed along with a method of securing the removable support assembly to an aquarium. The removable support assembly includes frame members positioned around an upper periphery of the aquarium. At least two of the frame members or a portion thereof, are oppositely aligned to one another. The removable support assembly also includes a divider, a pair of brackets and fasteners. The divider is sized and configured to span across and mate with the two oppositely aligned frame members. The divider is physically secured to the pair of brackets by the fasteners. Each of the pair of brackets has a first portion which mates in a recess of one of the two oppositely aligned frame members. The method recites the steps required to position and secure the removable support assembly to the frame members positioned around the upper periphery of the aquarium.

摘要： A water inlet system for an aquarium is disclosed along with a siphon stopper and a method of attaching the system to an aquarium. The water inlet system is designed to pass through an aperture formed in a sidewall of the aquarium. A tubular member is connected to a pump which can supply water from a reservoir to the aquarium. The tubular member passes through the aperture and into the aquarium. An adapter having a spout is connected to one end of the tubular member. In addition, a siphon stopper is secured to the adapter, above the spout, and serves to break any back siphon that may develop should the water line in the aquarium drop below a predetermined point. The method includes the steps of attaching the water inlet system to the aquarium.
