How to make your own oxygen supply device for a small fish tank

If you make your own offering device, you might as well buy one directly, which is only 10 yuan.

However, if you don't want to listen to that noise, you can make your own oxygen, first understand a principle, the so-called oxygenation, in fact, is the use of the bubbles in the water after the moment of breaking the oxygen into the water, so in other words, as long as there are bubbles in the water to break, there can be oxygen added to the water.

We can buy a waterfall filtration, the cost of 10 yuan can be filtered and can create flow, killing two birds with one stone for small fish tanks, in fact, the general fish tank does not need to be oxygenated to meet the needs of the fish, the premise is that the density is not too large.

Here's how to make your own small aerator:

1. If we want to make our own fish tank aeration pump, we must first prepare a waterproof small fan, a small foam board, a few stainless steel wires, a few small wooden strips, and a power supply device for putting batteries.

2. Then we put the small fan on the foam board, draw the outermost contour line of the small fan with a pencil, cut off the foam inside the contour line with scissors, and then fix the small fan vertically in the foam board with stainless steel wire, put the power device outside the fish tank, connect it with the wire of the small fan, remember to wrap the connection with waterproof tape, so as to prevent leakage, and then add an appropriate amount of wooden strips to the foam board, so that half of the small fan is immersed in water, so that the water body and the air have a channel to exchange oxygen, In this way, a small homemade aeration pump is made.

Pump the water to a high place and flow it back, so that the water flows farther and better!

Oxygen supply is generally to pump air into the water, so that the oxygen in the bubbles dissolves into the water, as long as you can complete the gas, the smaller the bubbles, the better.

1. Prepare tools: mineral water bottles, suction cups, scissors.

2. Cut the mineral water bottle along the middle and take the front half.

3. Make a hole in the lid to insert the air tube. The inner diameter of the hose is 4mm, and the outer diameter of the interface between the check valve and the air regulating valve is exactly 4mm.

4. Make a hole in the side to fix the suction cup.

5. In this way, it can be sucked on the fish tank and completed.

Self-made simple oxygen pump, which can supply oxygen to the fish tank, the design principle is very innovative, a good invention.

1. Drill a round hole in the cover, glue the check valve, and connect the trachea to the check valve to flush oxygen into the fish tank. 2. Pay attention to the oxygen pump: according to the water depth of the fish tank, feeding density, etc., sort out the air output and air pressure requirements.

According to the requirements of air output and air pressure, plan the structure and material of the air pump. Design detailed drawings according to the structure and material of the air pump. Procurement of the main materials, accessories and production tools required for the finished product in the design.

2. Extended answer: The mineral water bottle can be made into a filter container for the fish tank, open an opening at the bottom of the bottle, connect a pipe, and connect a pipe to the bottle mouth, two pipes are connected to the water pump, one is put into the water, the filter material is put in the bottle, and a simple filter bucket is good, the water pump pumps up the dirty water, passes through the filter material in the bottle, and then discharges it back into the fish tank in the pipe at the other end.

What material is the mineral water bottle made of?

Generally, the material of mineral water bottle is polyester (PET), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), on the basis of which the corresponding organic solvent is added, and after high temperature heating, it is made by plastic molds through blow molding, extrusion blowing, or injection molding. When using plastic products, special attention should be paid to avoid contact with vinegar, detergents, etc., and avoid direct sunlight, high temperature, etc., so as to avoid chemical reactions. In addition, when buying plastic tableware, you should choose plastic products with PE (polyethylene) or PP (polypropylene) marking, few decorative patterns, colorless and odorless, and a smooth surface.

The main raw material for making beverage bottles is polypropylene plastic, which is non-toxic and harmless, and has no adverse effects on the human body when used to hold soda and cola-type beverages; However, since plastic bottles still contain a small amount of ethylene monomer, if fat-soluble organic matter such as wine and vinegar are stored for a long time, chemical reactions will occur. Long-term consumption of food contaminated with ethylene can cause dizziness, headache, nausea, loss of appetite, memory loss, etc., and in severe cases, it may also lead to anemia. In addition, when wine and vinegar are used in beverage bottles, the bottles will be aged by oxygen and ultraviolet rays, releasing more ethylene monomer, which will deteriorate and change the taste of wine and vinegar stored in the bottle for a long time.

There are several ways to increase dissolved oxygen in the water of a fish tank:

1. Aquatic plants photosynthesize to supply oxygen, and put some plants in the water to produce oxygen by themselves; Or when changing the water, we should try to fill as little water as possible, enough for these fish to swim, we can change to a larger and open basin, which can increase the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, or can be placed in a ventilated and cool place, the effect is better, when the water temperature is high, we can use ice water bottles to cool down.

2. The circulating filtration equipment stirs the water flow to increase dissolved oxygen.

Third, the air pump oxygenation, the fish tank to supply oxygen, when the oxygen is sufficient, we have to check the water quality, if there is a problem with the water quality to replace in time, fourth, reduce the feeding density, reduce the consumption of oxygen.

There are several simple ways to increase the oxygen content of a fish tank:

1. Buy an air pump or water pump or .........Anyway, it's just a pump.

2. Stir the water in the fish tank often to make the water body in contact with the air, so as to ......3. The pipe, blowing air into the water, the principle is the same.

4. Raising some aquatic plants in the fish tank can make them photosynthesize during the day or when there is light, and provide oxygen to the fish tank.

5. Change the water frequently.

<>First of all, aquatic plants photosynthesis can produce oxygen, and we can plant some aquatic plants in a small slippery fish tank to provide oxygen. When you put water in the fish tank, you don't need to put too much, you just need to have enough for the fish to survive, which can increase the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water. Secondly, the filtration equipment can be circulated to stir the water flow and increase dissolved oxygen.

It is also possible to provide oxygen to the fish tank by adding oxygen through the air pump, which will also reduce the consumption of oxygen when reducing the feeding density. Finally, even when the oxygen is sufficient, we have to check the quality of the water, and when there is a problem, the sail needs to be replaced in time.

Oxygen is needed for any living thing to survive, and life cannot survive without it. The same is true for fish, which are mainly obtained by absorbing dissolved oxygen in the water through the microvessels of the gills. A device that improves the dissolution of oxygen in water, this kind of equipment is also available on the market, but if you make it, you can save some costs, so how to make your own fish tank oxygen?

What are the functions of oxygen pumps?Let's take a look at the relevant knowledge.

1. How to make oxygen in the fish tank.

Prepare a storage box, the size of which is determined by the size of the fish tank, drill holes in the side with an electric drill, and then fill it with activated carbon. Place the bottle on the drilled side of the box and place the filter media inside the box. The side of the upper cover is flattened, and then two small storage boxes are taken, the mouth is wide and the bottom is narrow, so that they can be stacked together, and the bottom is drilled, this hole should be slightly larger, in case the bottom drainage is blocked, it can be used as an emergency diversion, so as not to flow to the outside of the fish tank.

Appropriate amount of pebbles is used to grow hydroponic plants. Large pebbles are paved on the top layer to prevent the water from washing away the small pebbles. Hydroponic plants are planted in small storage boxes with pebbles.

Place another small storage box on top of the larger media box. A layer of filter cotton is laid inside as a secondary filter for impurities in the water, so that the homemade fish tank filter box is ready.

2. What are the functions of oxygen pumps?

1. It can increase the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water and transport oxygen to every corner of the fish tank to avoid harm to fish due to insufficient oxygen. This is especially important for seawater aquariums and water bodies that are not planted with aquatic weeds.

2. Increase the air pressure in the water by inflating the oxygen pump, so that the water body will fluctuate, and the harmful gases such as dioxide and hydrogen sulfide dissolved in the water can be removed homeopathically, so as to purify the water quality.

3. When the oxygen pump is turned on, the water body will flow to avoid the phenomenon of stratification of the upper and lower water temperatures in the aquarium. When the thermostat is used in winter, the convection of the water disperses the heat energy evenly.

4. Due to the increase of oxygen in the water, the activity of aerobic bacteria is intensified, which can quickly decompose harmful substances in the water and improve the water environment.

5. When the oxygen pump is working, the dismantling will form bubbles to spray out from the exhaust nozzle, floating upward from the lower layer of the water tank, enhancing the dynamic melody of the aquarium and improving the ornamental value of the aquarium.
