If you buy a new fish tank to raise fish, the first thing you need to do is to raise water. Specifically, water can be raised according to the following steps:
1. Fish tank disinfection: For a new fish tank, it is likely that there will be some toxic substances on it. Therefore, it is necessary to disinfect the fish tank before raising water. Specifically, the fish tank can be placed for a few days, and then disinfected with potassium permanganate. Then fill the fish tank with water, soak for a period of time, and pour all the water out.
2. Add water: After the disinfection process is completed, you can refill the fish tank with water. If an oxygen pump is prepared, the oxygen pump can be opened to supplement the oxygen content in the water. After that, the temperature can be adjusted to be in a suitable state.
3. Culture nitrifying bacteria: The next step is to culture the nitrification system in the water. An appropriate amount of nitrifying bacteria can be added to the water. Sometimes it takes a long time to cultivate a perfect nitrification system, which requires patience.
4. Test: After the above steps are completed, you can test. You can put some small fish in it first to see if the water environment is suitable for the growth of fish. After the experimental steps are completed, we can formally raise fish.
Before fish, water is an important step. It is better to wait until the nitrification system in the water is well established before raising fish. Generally speaking, it takes at least 6-9 days to raise fish in water, so that the effect of fish farming in water is better, which can avoid the inadaptability of fish.
