if the water pump is not turned on at night? If the water pump is not turned on at night, the nitrifying bacteria will die. Although not all of them will die, the nitrification system in the tank will basically collapse. Nitrifying bacteria are a particularly important part of the fish tank. There are two main types of nitrifying bacteria. The first type can convert ammonia nitrogen in the water into nitrite, and the second type can convert nitrite into nitrate. In this way, there will be no harmful substances in the water to the health of fish.
of the fish tank water pump? 1. Filtration: The main function of the water pump is filtration. It makes the water in the tank flow, and after passing through each filter box, it is pumped back into the tank, thus completing the filtration of the water. Filtration can maintain water quality, as the saying goes, running water is never stale, which is also of great help to the health of fish.
2. Oxygenation: The fish tank water pump can play the role of oxygenation. In the process of working, the pump will bring part of the air into the tank, so as to improve the dissolved oxygen in the water, ensure that the fish can breathe better, and avoid the occurrence of floating head and other symptoms.
3. Flow making: Some water pumps also have the function of flow making, which can make the water flow of each water layer in the tank uniform, and there will be no dead water area. Not only that, it can also prevent the dirt in the water from accumulating somewhere, which is helpful for filtration, so as to better maintain the water quality.
