number of bacterial houses should be placed in the filter tank, generally as much as possible, because the more bacterial houses, the more nitrifying bacteria will be cultured, so that the nitrification system will be more stable, which is conducive to the overall ecological cycle. It should be noted that filtration is divided into physical filtration and biological filtration. The first layer uses physical filtration, that is, putting filter cotton, followed by biological filtration. If the water flow does not go through physical filtration to remove impurities, the cultivation of bacteria will be affected.
the bacterial house 1. Cleaning and disinfection: Before using the bacterial house, it must be cleaned and disinfected. The purpose of doing so is to prevent it from bringing harmful bacteria into the fish tank, thus affecting the normal growth of fish. You can prepare potassium permanganate solution, soak the bacterial house in it, and rinse it with clean water after a period of time.
2. Pour in bacteria: Although the nitrification system can be established sooner or later as long as the fish are kept for a long time, the fish may have problems in the process. So if you want to cultivate nitrifying bacteria as early as possible, you can pour some regularly. Usually in the first month, a little bit is added every week.
3. Turn off the lamp and explode oxygen: Nitrifying bacteria belong to aerobic bacteria and do not like light very much. Therefore, in order to cultivate them, it is better to turn off the lamp and explode oxygen, which can accelerate the growth and reproduction and is conducive to the establishment of nitrification system.
