Q: Select the size of the filter for my aquarium?

A: Considering the processing capacity of the filtration system. Lack of processing capacity of fish tank, the same to reach the effect, I consider equivalent to the non-existent, its a waste of resources would be better designed handling capacity greater than actual demand. This will not only keep a good fish but also eliminates a lot of trouble, the volume of the filtration system in general at least 5% of the breeding tank volume.

Q: What is the role of the filtration system on fish?

A: The filtration system has a significant role in keeping tropical fish, on the one hand you can filter fish feces, filter feeding the fish when the remaining residual feed, to avoid these substances decompose oxygen to increase the organic matter content of the water damaged the quality . On the other hand, in the filtration system to cultivate nitrifying bacteria and other bacteria, you can create nitrification decomposition of these substances, inhibit harmful nitrite.

Q: What factors affect my filtering system processing capacity?

A: The filter coefficients of factors: water flow, filter (filter pool filter volume) volume, all kinds of filter. I believe that the relationship between them is the multiplication effect as a filter.

Q: I use the bottom filter system, the need for heating? More power in the heating rods?

A: Bottom filter cylinder is of course the need for heating, the temperature difference between the fish is not good, will increase the load of heating rods in the tank. The combination of your room temperature to consider the needs of multiple high-power to master the principles of the outlet water temperature and tank water temperature difference of not less than 1 degree Celsius, in general, 1.2 m of the bottom filter cylinder 600 watt heating rods.

Q: Activated carbon filtration system where what to put them?

A: The main function of activated carbon adsorption of ions, demineralized water, and remove the odor, but on the microporous activated carbon can easily be clogged, so we have to put all the filter in front of, on the one hand, before the large particulate matter will not plug the micropores, on the other hand, if placed on the location of the back of the activated carbon will be nitrifying bacteria as a breeding ground and thus clogging the porous activated carbon loss of adsorption, while the activated carbon as the carrier of the nitrifying bacteria is not ideal, not as good as biochemical ceramic ring, or biochemical ball better.
