The size of the shrimp tank is different, and the filter used is also different. If the shrimp tank is relatively small, light with a water goblin can be, shrimp tank is relatively large, in addition to the water goblin, but also to prepare a filter cartridge. Shrimp excretion is relatively large, but usually can not change water frequently, so we can only rely on filtration to improve water quality. Small tank can not have too fast water flow, filtration is too strong to easily suck shrimp to the water inlet, so only one water goblin is used. If you use a vat, the filtering capacity of the water goblin is not enough, you need to install a filter cartridge.
1. Lamp: The shrimp tank is generally equipped with a lamp. For the shrimp, the intensity of the light does not have a great impact, but it is very important for the reproduction of the aquatic plants and algae in the tank. The aquatic plants need light for photosynthesis, so as to increase the oxygen content in the water body. Algae is the food of shrimp, and they can reduce feeding.
2. Bottom mud: The bottom mud is necessary for raising shrimps. If there is no mud at the bottom, the shrimps are easy to slip. Moreover, only when there is bottom mud can aquatic plants be planted. Aquatic plants are particularly important for shrimps. There are many choices of sediment, the common is ADA mud, you can use black sand, coral sand and Chaohu sand, different varieties of sediment requirements are not the same.
3. Heating rod: Shrimp has certain requirements for water temperature, too high or too low is not allowed. In order to avoid too cold in winter, it is necessary to use heating rods to heat water so that the temperature can be maintained at 22-24 degrees Celsius.
