1, We choose a healthy fish, plus all the new fish quarantine, quarantine aquarium to achieve required standards of the main aquarium to avoid any means to fish by the stimulation.
2, We do not expect all of the fish is the same way, remember that different types of fish feeding habits, similar and different types of fish between the cross-platform, the size of the final size of mature fish.
3, In the aquarium in any metal not being used.
4, We must learn to identification of signs of water problems: sparkling, cloudy, discolored and odorous water is deterioration of the signal.
5, We should not forget that time partial water changes, time to add trace elements. Gradually replace all of the aquarium water, sucked the aquarium 20% to 25% of the water and slowly added to new water, the time just stopped for half an hour, remember to switch off the power or other power filters, when the water level low when it may lead to “stranded.”
6, Time to add fresh water evaporation loss compensation.
7, The glass cover to keep clean, not a transparent glass cover to prevent glare completely into the water.
8, We check the filter flow rate is relatively large, frequently clean the external filter media and activated carbon, preferably 10 days time. With the aquarium water clean, so as not to kill any bacteria group.
When cleaning the filter, external filter hose placed on the plug to reduce the risk of overflow.
Cleaned outside power filter, make sure the filter pump connection hoses and well, it is very easy to find time to pay attention to the aquarium and filter.
Bio-filter the water slowed down, indicating that the bottom sediments and more. In this case, should be very slightly loose fouling the bottom, with a special “gravel washing device”, it sucked the deposition of waste, remove the bottom itself different.
Another way to keep a clean bottom is removed every six months as part of that is 10%, do not remove too much part of, otherwise, the filter pad will be poor nitrifying bacteria.
9, We add a few drops of dyed water, checking the effectiveness of activated carbon, for example, methylene blue drip filter inlet, outlet if the water appears, the active surface is still valid. If blue, activity needs to be replaced.
10, We check the air stone in the air-driven bio-filters, air gas to enhance the process of rock salt and calcium by blocking may cause to slow down. If this happens, gas can rock out, clean or replace.
11, On time and remove residue of the protein skimmer collection room.
12, Over a period of time, algae covered the whole aquarium, with non-metallic glass in front of the eraser to remove the algae (such as nylon and plastic eraser is very effective), in a small aquarium algae, excessive algal debris can be used to to feed the fish. No need to aquarium
Other algae on the glass box is also removed. Because the fish from above it grazed, excessive growth of algae will be affected by thinning brush.
13, Fish with drug treatment, to follow medication instructions. Remember, drug therapy will kill the copper box in most invertebrates. This is why the fish and invertebrates together the reasons for farming more difficult. If necessary, remove the sick fish, sick fish and separate the main aquarium. Do not mix drugs. Disposed of all of the equipment were disinfected. Do not use the same nets.
