    What is your filtration, upper filtration, bottom filtration, external filter barrel... Wait a minute. The cylinder of 600 is generally about 3 catties. Mine is also a 600 cylinder. The outer filter barrel put 3 catties.

    The effect is better on the ceramic ring, bacteria can grow on it, and it is okay to put it in the water, but you have to put it in proportion to your water volume, and you have to adjust the water temperature.

    Place on a ceramic ring. That helps to grow nitrifying bacteria better and faster.

    How does it work well--- half of the cylinder, half of the filter box.

    Do not wash the filter for 2 weeks. And increase the amount of bait appropriately.

    Filtered? Place on the upper filter spout.

    It is necessary to have a filtration system, which is placed directly at the bottom of the tank, and if there is no water flow, although some nitrifying bacteria can be attached, it is actually of little significance. In the process of reproduction and growth of nitrifying bacteria, the ammonia produced by the decomposition of feces, food residues and other substances in the water is decomposed by other bacteria, so as to solve some water quality problems. So it's important to have a steady flow of water, and secondly, the nitrification system needs a lot of oxygen to set up, and you need to get oxygen.

    Yes, but it's not very beautiful if you put it directly in the tank.

    Hello: You can use activated nitrifying bacteria, which are sold in aquariums.

    If your conditions allow, I give you advice.

    The bottom filtration of the fish tank is best not too different from the size of the fish tank (the larger the bottom filter tank, the better the filtration effect), and the filter tank is filled with physically filtered filter cotton, and the activated carbon, biochemical ball, ammonia absorption stone (maifan stone) for chemical filtration, as well as glass rings, ceramic rings, and magnetization rings for biological filtration.

    Such a filtration system is the strongest. I can do it without changing the water, at least mine hasn't changed the water in three years. Mine is the bottom filter.

    Buy a filter bucket or have an upper filter, put a good nitrifying bacteria capsule, spread it in the filter material, the temperature of the water is not too low, and open the filter 24 hours a day. Start feeding in small amounts after 3 days. After one week, the nitrifying bacteria grew almost well.

    Cartridges with around 6 liters of filter media.

    1. Of course, the more filter media is placed, the better, and the standard is usually to configure the filter box volume according to one-tenth of the volume of the fish tank; In other words, the volume of the filter box should reach one-tenth of the volume of the fish tank. According to your fish tank, it should be equipped with a filter cartridge that can hold about 6 liters of filter media (about 4-5 kg filter ring).

    2. Due to the space limitation of your filter box, as long as the filter box is filled with a glass ring, and three layers of white cotton can be laid on it, the water pumped into the filter box will not overflow the filter box without the filter material.

    3. The selection of biochemical filter materials, in order of good or bad filtration effect: ceramic balls, glass rings, ceramic rings, biochemical balls, black biochemical cotton, these are mainly used for weak acidic soft water, as well as coral sand, shell sand and other hard water that can be used for alkaline, in addition, it is best to use ceramic balls and glass rings.

    Yes, but it is not recommended.

    1.Unsightly.

    2.The main function of the ceramic ring is to cultivate nitrifying bacteria, nitrifying bacteria must have oxygen to grow, so it is best to put it in the filter box, the lack of oxygen at the bottom of the tank, and the nitrifying bacteria can not see the light, always turn on the light or bask in the sun at the bottom of the fish tank, and the effect of raising bacteria will not be good.

    3.The hollow structure of the ceramic ring is easy to hide dirt and dirt, put it at the bottom of the cylinder, there is no filtered water flow, the small holes in the ceramic ring are easy to be blocked by dirt, nitrifying bacteria can not hide, and the ceramic ring becomes a waste product, and then pollutes the water quality.

    After opening the cylinder, nitrifying bacteria can be put in, and the amount is a minimum packaging unit.

    In the filter box of the fish tank filter, a layer of filter material (including bacteria house, biochemical ball, glass ring, etc.) is laid, because the surface area of the filter material is very large, it is the best place to cultivate nitrifying bacteria;

    Then lay a layer of filter cotton on top of the filter material, the filter cotton can filter out large particles of feed residue or fish manure, and finally put nitrifying bacteria on the filter cotton, so that the water flow first passes through the filter cotton to play the effect of physical filtration, and then through the filter material to play the effect of biochemical filtration.

    The specific method can be consulted on the most pet network, and the prerequisite for these links to work well is that the filter must be turned on 24 hours a day, and the water quality will be well improved after about 1 to two days.

    Due to the slow reproduction of nitrifying bacteria, it is often beaten by harmful bacteria and has no power to fight back, so we found two helpers for it to grab the land, one is a very fast-growing, aerobic yeast, responsible for grabbing the land for the nitrifying bacteria to live;

    The other is anaerobic lactic acid bacteria, which also multiply very quickly and are responsible for destroying bacteria that are harmful to nitrifying bacteria in the hypoxic zone. Bacteria must have a home to multiply on a large scale, the filter is their main home, the more houses the better, and the best cost-effective house is glass ring and sand.

    If you have a total of 100 litres of water for fish farming, then you need to have at least 10 litres of sand with a diameter of 3 mm or at least a 1 litre glass ring. More is better, although it is wasted, but there is a reserve for emergency. The house should be built in advance and wait for the bacteria to move in.

    Breathe oxygen:

    Enough food:

    As long as there are fish in the tank, the bacteria will have food, and increasing the food can promote the reproduction of the bacteria, but too few bacteria will not be full, and too many will be broken, so the speed of increase is very important.

    In addition, we use a piece of filter cotton to break up large pieces of food so that the bacteria can eat them. The filter foam is in front of the filter tank and occupies 10% of the space in the filter tank.

    A certain flow of water:

    The water flow brings oxygen and food to the bacteria who settle down, and when the water is strong, it washes away the bacteria's homes, and when the water flow is small, it does not bring enough oxygen and food.

    For a 100 litre water tank, you should have a pump with a flow rate of more than 600 litres, a set of water circulation piping, and a good flow of water to bring faeces and food debris to the bacteria.

    The right temperature:

    Fish and bacteria can grow and reproduce well between 24-28 degrees. If the water is colder, a heating rod will do the trick. Generally, a 100-liter cylinder with a 100-watt to 150-watt heating rod is very suitable.

    Stable water quality:

    Since bacteria basically live in the water, they prefer a more stable water quality, and once the water quality changes drastically, they have to move. It is enough to place a small amount of activated carbon or maifan stone in the filter tank through which the water flows, which occupies about 10% of the space of the filter tank.

    The following is for reference.

    The ceramic ring of the fish tank is used to cultivate nitrifying bacteria.

    But nitrifying bacteria are not visible to the naked eye.

    Whether the ceramic ring has cultivated nitrifying bacteria is mainly to see the clarity of the water quality.

    If the water is clear, it means that the nitrifying bacteria are stable, and the ceramic ring has a function.

Nowadays, most of the fish are raised in bare tanks, and the advantage of bare tanks is that they are easy to clean, and dirt is not easy to accumulate at the bottom of the tank. However, due to the lack of nitrifying bacteria in the tank, the self-cleaning ability is limited, if the density of the fish is large and the feeding is too much, and the fish feces cannot be absorbed in time, the water body is easy to be turbid in many cases. Because the BB of the fish cannot be decomposed and transformed by nitrifying bacteria in time, the ammonia nitrogen in the tank exceeds the standard, and the fish is easy to get sick or even die. >>>More
