    In general, there will be a certain amount of disinfectant left in the tap water, especially after the property has cleaned the water supply system, so it is not suitable to be added directly to the fish tank, and it is best to leave it for a period of time to let it evaporate. In addition, some fish like to change the water frequently, and some don't, but in order to do not change the water for a long time, it is necessary to cultivate a good ecological environment of the fish tank.

    Generally, the water change is because the water in the fish tank is turbid, and the water change is not the best solution, which is time-consuming and laborious. If you raise the nitrifying bacteria in the fish tank, the water in the fish tank can be self-cleaning and will not be turbid. The turbidity of the water is due to the excrement of the fish, which will float in the water and cannot be absorbed by the plants, and of course the fish will not solve it on their own, which requires the cultivation of nitrifying bacteria in the fish tank.

    Nitrifying bacteria feed on the garbage in the water and decompose the garbage in the water. With nitrifying bacteria, the water will not be turbid, the fish tank will be hygienic, and the fish will not be easy to get sick. Nitrifying bacteria are sold in aquariums, just add them to the fish tank according to the instructions.

    However, adding nitrifying bacteria will not be effective immediately, because nitrifying bacteria are bacteria and also need to be "raised", and raising nitrifying bacteria will free you from the labor of changing water. The nitrifying bacteria added to the fish tank are just seeds, not much, you need to let them multiply in your fish tank, and if there are more of them, you can solve the garbage in the water in time, and you can do it once and for all, so you have to raise them well. There are a few points to pay attention to when raising nitrifying bacteria:

    Residence: Nitrifying bacteria cannot float in water, but need to attach to other things, such as tank walls, aquatic plants, knick-knacks, sand and gravel, etc. A variety of sand and gravel is a good choice, which can occupy a small space in the fish tank and provide a place for a large number of nitrifying bacteria to live.

    Food: There must be a flow of water in the place where you live, because the nitrifying bacteria will not move and can only wait for the water to bring in what needs to be decomposed, so the attachments provided must be "watered". Therefore, porous stones and large grains of sand are better choices.

    Respiration: Nitrifying bacteria also need oxygen from the water to breathe, especially when it comes to breaking down the garbage in the water. Fish also need oxygen, if you see fish swimming close to the surface of the water, it means that there is a lack of oxygen in the water, which can be solved with an air pump or water pump.

    Safety: To live in peace can you be happy, not to harass nitrifying bacteria can he work hard to help you solve the fish tank garbage, harassing it is to clean the fish tank. Nitrifying bacteria and mold are all bacteria, but we can see mold**Yes, because there is mildew, it is gone when you wipe it, but nitrifying plaque is not visible.

    Therefore, do not clean the fish tank often, cleaning is to force the nitrifying bacteria to demolish, and to clean it thoroughly is to exterminate the clan**.

    With nitrifying bacteria, the water will not mix, but there may be some green moss and other things in the fish tank, so we will clean the fish tank. The fish tank is green moss generally because the fish tank is exposed to the sun, so don't let the fish tank bask in the sun. It is also necessary to pay attention to the amount of food fed to the fish, which must not be excessive.

    Human food spoils, and so does fish's. While nitrifying bacteria can help break down a portion of the food residues, your handful is equal to a mountain of his. In fact, it is difficult for fish to starve to death, but it is easy to hold on to death, and it is easy to cause various diseases due to the deterioration of excess food, so fish must be fed properly.

    The change of water for fish depends on the season: spring is the recovery period for fish, and the water is changed as little as possible, generally about 1/3 of the water volume. In summer, the temperature is high, the fish breathe vigorously, the organic matter such as fish residue bait decomposes quickly, and the fish are prone to hypoxia.

    Autumn is the time when fish accumulate nutrients and store them for winter and spawning in the following year"Old water", you don't have to change too often, generally change once every 2-3 weeks, about 1/3 of each time. In winter, the water is generally not changed, and if it is in a heated room, the water should be changed less, because the physique of fish in winter is weak, which is easy to cause fish diseases.

    In order to prevent disease, some salt can be added in winter and spring, and 20g of salt can be added per cubic body of water, and so on, and better results can be obtained. <>

    Fish farming in tap water is not bad for goldfish, it depends on how well you raise them in water. If we want goldfish to grow in tap water, we have to spend time to get rid of chlorine in the water by static or drying methods. The goldfish bought back from the market are hurriedly put into the fish tank, so that your goldfish can adapt to the environment of the tap water in your fish tank, and the goldfish will be fed from the next day after entering the tank.

    Note: Tap water to raise goldfish pH is better placed.

    Goldfish can die directly from tap water. Because there is hypochlorous acid in tap water, hypochlorous acid is not good for goldfish, so if you use tap water to raise fish, you need to dry it, so that the components of hypochlorous acid will be fine after oxidation. Raising goldfish in tap water needs to be dried for two days in summer and one week in winter, and then before putting the goldfish in the fish tank of tap water, you need to put a little soda in the fish tank, remember to be less, and then put in a little salt.

    In addition, if you don't have time to dry tap water, you can use some chlorine removers that can remove chlorine gas more efficiently. Generally, the dosage is not well controlled, and it needs to be carried out under the guidance of professionals. It is better to raise goldfish with river or lake water, and well water is also not allowed, and it also needs to be sunned.

    Maintain water qualityDuring the breeding period, the water should be changed and the filter cotton should be cleaned in time, the water should be changed to the original water body of 1 3, in the summer every 3-4 days to change the water, in the spring and autumn every 7 days to change the water, in the winter every 15 days to change the water, to salvage the remaining bait and excrement, so as to reduce the pollution of water quality, during the period to adjust the water temperature of the fish tank according to climate change, regularly detect the pH value of the water.
