If the equipment in the fish tank is relatively perfect, there are filters to maintain water quality, and there is no algae explosion, there is no need to clean it.

If it is a big fish, it is better to prepare another fish tank, temporarily raise the fish inside, and then clean the original fish tank.

2. Wipe: After fishing out the fish, empty the water in the fish tank and take out all kinds of equipment. Then find a soft cloth, wipe the inner wall of the fish tank, if it is a large fish tank, you can use double magnet wall wipe, so more convenient operation. The main purpose of wiping the fish tank is to clean up the algae attached to the tank wall, as well as some white scale.
