					<description><![CDATA[Maintenance in Jarrariums One of the primary goals of a jarrarium is little-to-no maintenance. The term “self-sustaining ecosystem” by its very nature means that, once set up, you shouldn’t have to ever touch it again. Despite our best efforts, this probably won’t be the case. Aquariums, in general, require a lot of maintenance. Like we’ve [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Chemical Balancing in Jarrariums Much like aquariums, there are several chemicals that you will want to monitor regularly. Ideally, in an entirely self-sustaining ecosystem, you would never have to monitor or adjust the levels of these chemicals. While you probably won’t achieve that level of sustainability, adjusting chemicals should be a rare occurrence in most [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[What is Aquascape? When you first conceived of jarrariums, you probably weren’t focusing on all that science stuff. You don’t really want to think about water parameters and the threat of algae blooms. Instead, you’d rather imagine beautiful landscapes simulated in a confined space.

					<description><![CDATA[What is Cycling? Cycling is a term you might have heard if you’ve ever dug a bit deeper into the aquarium hobby. As I mentioned in the previous section, there’s a whole host of organisms that are a critical part of aquatic ecosystems. These microscopic plants, animals, and bacteria form the foundation of the ecosystem. [&#8230;]]]></description>
