Brother, do you have any idea how hot it is in winter and air conditioning it in summer -- fish tank water drops so fast that it has to be replenished once in two or three days。
Water evaporates too quickly, not only in trouble, but also in ways that affect water quality. Today, old fish tells you a few ways to reduce the evaporation of the fish tank。
What's the effect of evaporating too fast
Water levels are down and pumps may be dry. Especially in the bottom filtration tank, where the water is low enough to pump. Minerals are concentrated, water evaporates and the minerals remain in the water with increasing hardness and fish may not be adapted. Frequent recharge of water, if not trapped, directly from piped water, and the accumulation of residual chlorine can also hurt fish。
Which ones are the fastest to evaporate
The bottom filtration tank is the fastest evaporation, with a large surface, high current, high temperature and larger evaporation than the main tank. The herb cask is luminous, the lights heat up the water surface, and it evaporates quickly. On the balcony or by the window, the sun evaporates quickly. It's small, and a little bit of evaporation drops。
How do we reduce evaporation
First move, lid. Glass push caps are the most practical, transparent, temperature-preserving, flight-resistant, and evaporation reduction. Akeli covers light but easy to shave. The grid is good for air, but not for evaporation. The evaporation can be reduced by more than half with the lid. Note: the lids need to leave a gap in the air or the fish lacks oxygen。
Second move, lower water temperature. The higher the temperature, the faster the evaporation. The winter bar should not be too high. Tropical fish should be 26-28 degrees. It cools in the summer, but the fan accelerates evaporation, so the summer has to be filled with water or used with a lid。
Third move, reduce surface disturbance. The greater the evaporation of the surface. Do not rush the water out of the water, which can be buried below. Reduction in the time of use of the pumps also accelerates evaporation by bursting the bubble。
What about the different fish tanks
Bottom filtration, with a lid, with a lid, and a evaporation. The water level is checked regularly and at least once a week。
The cask, with glass to pull the cover, does not affect the light and reduces evaporation. It can also reduce the height of the light and reduce the heat passing to the surface。
Tiny casks, with a glass cap or a skin mask. Evaporation is low and water quality is stable。
What do you care about water
With water that has been trapped or which has been dechlorated. Ro pure water is better than hard water. It's about the same temperature as the tank. Don't fill up cold water when evaporation is high。
Let's get this straight
The water evaporates too quickly, and a lid works best. And the bottom filtration tank. It would also help to reduce water temperature and surface disturbances. The water must be filled with water that has been trapped or ro, at a consistent temperature. Put a lid on the air hole and don't suffocate the fish。
Is your fish tank evaporating fast? What's the deal? The comment section talks to fish。
Old fish said, "the evaporation of water is a problem for old fish, especially the bottom filtration tank, and it's gone down for three days. With the lids, it is much less careful and does not require frequent recharge. If a freshman friend feels like he's in trouble, try a lid。
