An aquarium can be defined as a container that holds water and is designed in such a way that living aquatic organisms can be maintained over an extended period of time. Aquariums vary tremendously in size and design. They can be as simple as a betta bowl or as complex as a multi-million gallon commercial exhibit. When considering an aquarium it is important to contemplate where it will be located, which species will be maintained and what type of budget will be available. In general, larger aquariums are easier to work with than smaller ones. Greater investment is required, however, and a greater allocation of space is also needed.

“Feed passage,” or, more accurately, the passage of undigested feed in the feces of broilers, continues to be reported in broiler integrations on a sporadic basis. The incidence and severity are much lower at present than during 1996 when global reports of feed passage occurred following consecutive years of poor grain harvests. This document is VM123, one of a series of the Veterinary Medicine-Large Animal Clinical Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Diseases including blackleg, malignant edema, sord, black disease, red water, and three kinds of enterotoxemia are all caused by a genus of bacteria called Clostridium. These bacteria have three important qualities: they multiply only in the absence of oxygen; they have the ability to survive adverse conditions by transforming into highly resistant forms called spores; and they release potent toxins during the process of multiplying. It is the combination of these three characteristics that make the clostridia highly dangerous. This document is VM48, one of a series of the Veterinary Medicine-Large Animal Clinical Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

The objective of this study was to determine the relative incidences of malpositions and deformities, and their economic impacts. Major factors affecting their occurrence will be explained. Obviously, in any population it isanticipated to encounter malpositions and deformities during embryonic development. However, the incidence must be within accepted limits and changes must be made when excessive losses occur.

Producing a profitable broiler requires that certain standards be met, some even before the chicks are placed on the farm and during the grow-out. The most important principle is to set the best quality fertile eggs in the machines and ensure that all eggs have been handled properly. It is preferred not to hold the eggs more than three days and the egg room must have the right temperature and humidity during storage to avoid killing or weakening the blastoderm. The longer the eggs are kept in storage the poorer the chick vigor, quality and hatch. This document is VM134, one of a series of the Veterinary Medicine-Large Animal Clinical Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Caladiums [Caladium bicolor (Ait.) Vent., syn. Caladiumxhortulanum Birdsey, Araceae Juss.] are tropical foliage plants possessing diversity of leaf colors and shapes found in few cultivated plants. 'Florida Blizzard' is derived from a cross between the popular white heart-shaped leaf caladium cultivars 'Aaron' and 'White Christmas', initially was evaluated in 1993 as GC93-715. This document is ENH963, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.
