if there is brown algae on the filter material. It is possible for brown algae to grow anywhere, as long as the number is not very large, there is no need to pay special attention to it, but if the number is large, it is necessary to clean it up properly, otherwise it may cause algae explosion, and a large number of algae will die after explosion, which will lead to serious deterioration of the water body, which is also very harmful to the health of fish. In addition, algae consume oxygen, which causes fish to lack oxygen.
of brown algae 1. Strengthen illumination: To prevent the growth of brown algae, strengthening illumination is the first step. This kind of algae is different from many algae, light has an inhibitory effect on its growth, so as long as the light is properly strengthened, its outbreak can be prevented. In addition, light enhancement can also promote the reproduction of green algae, which is also helpful to water quality.
2. Proper cooling: The growth rate of brown algae is also related to the overall temperature of the fish tank. Although the temperature should not be too low for the sake of fish, it can still be properly cooled. When the temperature drops by about 2 degrees Celsius a day, the growth and reproduction of algae will also be limited to a certain extent.
3. Change water regularly: In addition to light and temperature, the quality of water also determines the development of brown algae. If the water is changed regularly, the new water will destroy the original microbial environment, thus controlling the number of algae and preventing the proliferation of brown algae.
