How to let fish bowl not grow moss, what method does precautionary moss have

If you want to keep the sun from growing moss, you must start with the environment. The growth of moss is related to the light and the nutrient level of the water body, so the growth rate can be restrained by controlling the light. At the same time, we should reduce feeding, less food, less organic matter, less nutrition in the water body, and moss is not easy to grow. In addition, you can regularly pour in algaecide to prevent the reproduction of algae, or raise some algae-eating fish to eat it.

1. to control the light

, if you want to keep the fish tank from growing moss, you must first control the light. Usually do not put the fish tank in a sunny place, long-term exposure to the sun has a great impact on its life, but also accelerate the growth of moss and other algae. But the health of fish also needs a certain amount of light, so special aquarium lights can be installed in the tank for 6-8 hours a day.

2. the growth

of moss can not be separated from the nutrients in the tank, and their source is fish food, by reducing feeding, it can also have a certain restrictive effect on its reproduction. The fish are usually fed a small number of times, with a certain interval, and after 9 A. M. to 4 P. m., the appropriate temperature makes them more willing to eat, thus reducing the residual bait.

3. Use algaecide

. Algaecide can kill all kinds of algae in the tank, and moss is no exception. If the dosage is well controlled, it can also prevent growth. Commonly used algaecides are usually glutaraldehyde or copper sulfate. It should be noted that the two should not be mixed, otherwise it will lead to failure. Algae eaters also have a certain ability to

control moss, such as black line flying foxes, small elf fish, moss rats and so on. With them in the fish tank, moss can not grow, but some fish only eat algae food, so without moss, they still need to feed algae to make feed, otherwise they will soon starve to death.
