  Aquarium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inhabitants for aquaria are often collected from the wild, although there is a growing list of organisms that are bred in captivity for supply to the aquarium trade.
Freshwater aquaria remain the most popular due to their lower cost and easier maintenance, but marine (saltwater) aquaria have gained cachet as dedicated enthusiasts prove it is possible to preserve these challenging environments.
For freshwater aquaria, additives formulated to remove chlorine or chloramine (used to disinfect drinking water supplies for human consumption) are often all that is needed to make the water ready for aquarium use.

An aquarium (plural aquariums or aquaria) is a clear-sided container (typically constructed of glass or high-strength plastic) in which water-dwelling plants and animals (usually fish, and sometimes invertebrates, as well as amphibians, marine mammals, and reptiles) are kept in captivity, often for public display; or it is an establishment featuring such displays.
Public aquaria reproduce the home aquarist's hobby on a grand scale — the Osaka Aquarium, for example, boasts a tank of 5,400 m³ (1.4 million U.S. gallons) and a collection of about 580 species of aquatic life.
In practice, this accumulation of nitrates in home aquaria requires the aquarium keeper to make periodic water changes, removing water from the tank that is high in nitrates and replacing it with water low in nitrates.

In order for visitors to be able to enjoy the beauty of the aquaria, the animals which inhabit them must be guaranteed conditions which are as close as possible to those in their natural environment.
The freshwater and smaller marine aquaria are equipped with autonomous circulation systems with the appropriate aquarial devices.
In freshwater tanks these devices are relatively simple, such as filters, heaters, etc. Marine aquaria, on the other hand, require highly complex devices which clean the water of all contaminants and stabilize water parameters by delivering necessary ingredients.

But the keeping of fish in an aquarium first became a popular hobby in Britain after ornate aquaria in cast-iron frames were featured at the Great Exhibition of 1851.
Aquaria became more widely popular as houses became almost universally electrified after World War I. With electricity they no longer depended on natural light and could be aerated and filtered.
Aquaria can vary in size from a small bowl temporarily large enough for a single juvenile goldfish to the huge public aquaria that can simulate entire marine ecosystems.
