, the fish tank water filter is not clear, may be the filter itself is not good enough. In order to ensure the filtration effect, the flow of the pump must match the capacity of the fish tank to ensure that the water in the fish tank can circulate 7-10 times per hour. In addition, with the use of the filter, more and more impurities will accumulate on the filter cotton, thus causing blockage, which needs to be cleaned at this time. If the filter cotton is washed thin, it needs to be replaced with a new one.
are the common filter materials? 1. Filter cotton: Filter cotton is an essential filter material in filtration equipment. It is mainly responsible for physical filtration and can filter out impurities in water. After it is used for a period of time, the filtering effect will be reduced due to the blockage of impurities. At this time, it needs to be taken out, cleaned with the original tank water and then put back.
2. Activated carbon: Activated carbon is the filter material of chemical filtration, which can adsorb harmful ions in water, thus playing a certain role in maintaining water quality. It should be noted that this kind of thing has a service life, usually 1-3 months, and it will be saturated if it is used too long, thus losing the effect of adsorption.
3. Bacteria house: The bacteria house is different from other filter materials that directly produce filtration effect. Its function is to provide a place for nitrifying bacteria to attach. Therefore, after it is placed, the culture solution of nitrifying bacteria should be poured in, so as to better establish a nitrification system, ensure that ammonia nitrogen in water can be effectively converted, and avoid fish poisoning.
