Aquarium cleaning and disinfection methods


1, cleaning the tank wall


The aquarium will produce dirt and moss on the glass walls after a long time, using a magnetic scraper to clean the moss and scale from the aquarium glass conveniently. Magnetic scraper is composed of two pairs, one is composed of knife blade and half brush blade, through the attraction of magnetism, one hand put the knife blade part into the water and attached to the tank wall, the other hand put the brush part outside the tank, make the two pieces attached tightly, then put the outside piece move to the moss and scale place back and forth, the inside piece will follow the move, through the move of the knife clean the moss and dirt, speed fast, labor-saving, clean the bottom, will not scratch the glass, my one is used for ten years, now magnetic scraper is still in use, the tank is also still in use.

2, clean the filter system

For the cleaning of the filter system, it is necessary to first understand the number of layers of the filter system. The first layer is the filter cotton, the second layer is the biological cotton, the third layer is the glass ring (ceramic ring, biological stone, etc.), the fourth layer is activated carbon (ammonia stone, wheat stone, etc.). Because the filtering barrel is sealed and the installation is relatively complex, and in order to protect the nitrification system, it is not advisable to clean it frequently, so the filter material should be a more high-quality material. The first layer belongs to the physical filtration, mainly to block solid residues in the water, so it is very easy to get dirty, the cleaning is mainly based on this layer, other layers are usually rarely cleaned, and often washing will lose nitrification bacteria. Washing is to take the opportunity to change the water, take out the filter cotton, in the drained water to rinse, can also use the siphon to reverse wash the filter cotton (of course, the current is very limited), when washing, you must not rub, you do not need to require washing too clean, you must not use tap water to wash, otherwise the nitrification bacteria attached to the filter cotton will be completely eliminated by you, so that lose the function of biological filtration.

First find a small basin, carefully clean, especially note that cannot have oil and unwashed detergent; put the small aquarium water together with the fish gently into the prepared small basin, the sedimentation of the residue in the tank bottom try to stay in the tank; clean the tank, the same as 1; add 1/2 new water (new water is best to pre-place 1-2 days, so that the temperature as close as possible to the tank water and volatile chlorine); according to the 2nd method, the water together with the fish to return to the tank, replenish new water, do not feed; after the fish adaptation, gradually feed a small amount.

According to this method, if you change the water often, the water will not be so dirty.



4, aquarium disinfection

Finally, let's talk about how to disinfect the aquarium. To disinfect the aquarium, you can use potassium permanganate solution, potassium permanganate, also known as PP powder, is a strong oxidizing agent, when it encounters organic matter, it will release a new ecology, has a bactericidal effect. Its killing power is very strong, the common concentration is 1:2000-1:5000 (that is, 1 gram of potassium permanganate plus 2L-5L water) solution wash. Note that when preparing the solution, consider the time, potassium permanganate release oxygen speed is slow, the soaking time must reach 5 minutes to kill the bacteria. The solution should use cool water, using hot water will be invalid. After disinfecting, just wash it lightly with water.
