How To Adjust PH In Fish Tank

Image
As the saying goes, raising fish first raises the water. The quality of the water determines whether the ornamental fish in the aquarium can be healthy or not. Generally, the PH value that fish can adapt to is roughly 6-9, but different fish can adapt to different PH values. If you are not keeping ornamental fish that like acidic water or alkaline water like the colorful fairy fish or cichlid fish, then the PH value in the water is often easy to be ignored. In the process of fish breeding, we will encounter various problems about PH, if not handled properly, it will have adverse effects on the fish, and in serious cases, it will lead to the death of the fish.  This article will briefly discuss the problems related to PH. What is PH? PH is a measure of acidity and alkalinity, specifically a number between 0 and 14. PH equal to 7 means water is neutral, less than 7 means water is acidic, and more than 7 means water is alkaline. From a chemical point of view, PH is the specific expres...

Enhance the Effectiveness of Physical Filtration in Fish Tanks

  Algae in the fish tanks Brown algae are inevitable in a fish tank. Algae eaters can solve the algae problem. However, how to get rid of green water? It is due to the effectiveness of physical filtration in the fish tank. Chlorella in the fish tank is supposed to exist anytime because the spore is airborne. Physical filtration can remove most of the impurities in water, as long as the water quality will not overly fertile, even a little chlorella in the tank, all can be intercepted by these aged filters. Tank green water  Overcrowding tank  If the proportion of fish and aquatic plants in the fish tank is unreasonable, it will cause overstocking in the tank. It leads to the result that the fish tank filter can't filter out the debris completely, causing the algae to grow too fast and form green water.  Overfeeding  When you overfeed the fish, a large amount of food will rot and deteriorate in the water, this is the nourishment of algae, and more green algae will...

What is this? Some people may think that the water is moldy and spoiled, in fact, this is also a frequent problem in aquariums – green water. Green water develops quickly, often one day long can make the water in the aquarium all green. What is green water? The main cause of green water is the crazy growth of various single-celled green algae, such as Chlorella, Chlamydomonas , etc. Among them, Chlorella accounts for the majority, and it can be said that Chlorella is the culprit of green water. There are two types of algae, one is called attached algae and the other is called planktonic algae. Although they are both algae, the way they grow is very different. The growth of algae needs to be attached to something, such as a tank wall, sunken wood, rock, or sand. As long as they can se...
