Fish lovers know that the water cycle in the fish tank is essential for the survival of the fish and the maintenance of water quality.
So, how to make a permanent circulating water system?
This article will give you a detailed introduction to the small production method of permanent circulating water in the fish tank.
1. Preparation materials: 1Fish tank: Choose a suitable fish tank, preferably made of transparent glass, so that you can easily observe the living conditions of the fish. 2.Circulating pump: Buy a circulating pump that is suitable for the capacity of the fish tank, with moderate power and flow. 3.Pipes & Fittings: Purchase a length of clear plastic tubing that fits the length of the fish tank, along with the corresponding fittings to connect the circulating pump, fish tank and overflow. 4.Biochemical cotton: Prepare an appropriate amount of biochemical cotton for filtering waste and impurities in the fish tank. 5.Valve: Purchase a valve that adjusts the flow rate to control the speed of the water circulation. 6.Power supply: Prepare a stable power supply for the circulating pump to ensure its normal operation.
Second, the production method: 1Place the circulating pump into the fish tank and select a suitable location so that it can effectively extract waste and impurities from the bottom of the fish tank. 2.Connect one end of the plastic pipe to the outlet of the circulating pump and the other end to the overflow port of the fish tank. Note that the length of the pipe should be kept within 8 blocks to ensure the flow rate of the water. 3.Dig a shallow pit at one end of the fish tank and put in biochemical cotton. Insert the other end of the plastic tube into the biochemical cotton to ensure that the water flow is able to flow evenly through the biochemical cotton. 4.Install a valve at the other end of the fish tank to regulate the water flow speed. The opening of the valve can be adjusted according to the size of the tank and the number of fish. 5.Connect the power cord of the circulating pump to the power supply, turn on the circulating pump, and observe whether the water flow is smooth. If there is a blockage, adjust the position of the pipe and valve in time. 6.In order to ensure the cleanliness of the fish tank water, it is recommended to replace the biochemical cotton once a week and regularly clean up the waste and impurities in the fish tank. 3. Precautions: 1When installing the pipeline, try to avoid elbows and dead corners to ensure the flow rate and circulation effect of the water. 2.The valve should be opened moderately to avoid water flowing too fast or too slowly. 3.Regularly check the operation of the circulating pump, and repair or replace it in time if there is any abnormal sound or failure. 4.Pay attention to the water quality, fish activities and appetite in the fish tank, and adjust the water circulation system according to the actual situation.
With the above steps, you will be able to create a simple fish tank permanent circulating water system.
Of course, depending on the size of the tank and the type of fish, you can also add other filtration equipment and adjust the circulation system to achieve better filtration results.
Hopefully, this article will be helpful to you and allow your fish to thrive in a clean, comfortable environment.
