if it is turned on all the time? The oxygen pump will not burn if it is turned on all the time. It is designed to run for a long time, so there is no need to worry about the problem of being burned out. However, it consumes electricity if it is turned on all the time, and it will also affect its service life, so it is OK to turn it on for a period of time every day. In addition, not all fish need oxygen pumps, unless the breeding density is very high, otherwise only large fish will have higher requirements for dissolved oxygen in the water body.
the oxygen pump 1. Daily: The oxygen pump can be opened every day, preferably for 24 hours, so as to avoid the occurrence of hypoxia. If you think it's too wasteful, you can also open it at different times, two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. If it is summer, the time of opening the oxygen pump should be increased, because the higher temperature will lead to the decrease of dissolved oxygen, so it needs to be opened for a while.
2. Water raising: Water raising is usually divided into two steps. The first step is to remove chlorine from water. Chlorine removal is mostly done by drying, but oxygenation can also achieve the same effect. The second step is to cultivate bacteria, because the cultivated nitrifying bacteria belong to aerobic bacteria, it needs to be oxygenated by oxygen pump to accelerate its growth and reproduction.
3, sick: When the fish is sick, also need to open the oxygen pump, on the one hand, dissolved oxygen increases, can promote metabolism, so that the fish will discharge harmful substances. On the other hand, some medicines for fish diseases will increase oxygen consumption, so it is better to supplement them.
