The fish tank water circulation speed is not the faster the better. Usually, the speed of water flow is related to the size of the fish tank, the flow is 3-5 times the volume of the water in the tank, so that the water flow can ensure the filtering effect, but also will not affect the activities of the fish. If the flow is too small, the water quality is difficult to maintain. However, if the flow is too large, the impurities in the cylinder will be washed everywhere, which is not conducive to the stability of the water body.
of high water flow speed in the fish tank? 1. Affect activities: If the water flow speed in the fish tank is too high, the activities of the fish will be affected to a certain extent. Many fish like still or slow-flowing waters and do not adapt to the environment with large currents. Moreover, fish need to spend strength to swim against the current, and it is easy to get tired after a long time.
2. Turbid water: It is not true that the greater the water flow, the better the filtering effect. There is usually bottom sand, residual bait and fish feces at the bottom of the tank. If the flow rate is appropriate, they will be brought to the filter, but if the flow rate is fast, they will be washed away, and the impurities will be suspended in the water, making the water look muddy.
3. Increase energy consumption: Usually, the water circulation of the fish tank depends on the water pump. The greater the flow rate, the higher the power of the water pump, so the power consumption is also greater. Higher energy consumption is also a waste.
