why is 0.5mg/L ?
Flow_rate_required_day :=

TAN_day Fish_Tank_Volume SSA mg 1m 0.5 Biofilter_volume_required = 26.325 L L

why is 1m?

TAN_day 0.5 mg L

Fish_Tank_Volume

Flow_rate_required_day = 7897.5 L

is the same 0.5mg/L ?

Flow_rate_required_hour :=

I add the Oxigen Capacity for the air pump

Oxigen_day = 0.252 kg m

Oxigen_day := 1.2 0.21

1kg feed = 0.21 kg/m3 O2 + 20% supliment

This formula is from Kadlec and Knight ?
