of the fish tank pump? The flow of the fish tank pump is generally related to the size of the fish tank, because the pump must ensure that all the water in the tank is filtered 7-10 times per hour, so the larger the fish tank, the higher the flow of the pump. For example, if a fish tank can hold 200 liters of water, the flow rate should be 2000 liters per hour, so that the water quality can be maintained and the fish can survive better.
1, easy to overflow: the flow of the pump is too large, the first problem encountered is overflow. Because the water flow at the outlet will continue to impact the water body, in this case, excess water will overflow from the top, which will lead to water loss, and the power consumption of the pump will be very high.
2. The fish is too tired: Under normal circumstances, the current in the fish tank can keep the fish alive, but if the current speed is too fast, the fish is equivalent to swimming in a turbulent river. Being in this state for a long time will cause the fish to be overworked, even affect their health, and even cause death in serious cases.
3. Turbid water body: Do not think that the water flow is large, and the filtration is better. On the contrary, if the flow is too large, the dirt can not stay in the filter cotton at all, it will be washed into the water, and it will break it, so that it keeps hovering in the fish tank, and the water will become turbid.
