A large proportion of the people who play with the sea water are turned by fresh water, and so am i
Many people have been consulted about the difference between seawater and fresh water. Can a freshwater tank be used directly as a water tank? Isn't the water cask a specialty? A series of questions
The water used is not the difference between the so-called “salinity” of freshwater and seawater, but the difference between the water used。
I personally do not recommend running water as a source of water for artificial seawater。
A key factor in this is the tds value of water, where dissolved solids, including metal ion equivalents such as potassium permium and lead arsenic mercury, are present. The lower the content, the purer the water。
Corals grow in isolation, etc., but there is a certain requirement for the ratio of artificial sea salt to restore the components of natural seawater, all of which are more stringently matched, and metal ions carried in running water break this ratio, and even cause some elements to overstate, affecting coral growth and even harming corals themselves。
In addition, there may be excess nitrate in running water
Following the release of the plant, which is to be transported through the pipeline, there is a potential for contamination on the upper floors and in the top tanks, with one of the more important upward indicators being nitrate, which is more lethal for corals。
1. The water produced by domestic water purification machines can be used to feed lps。
The simplest method is to prepare a tds test pen, which is smaller than 50 and can be used to feed lps, and in the case of sps, the tds value is less than 10。
3. In some areas, the quality of piped water is better, and the tds value is around 50 and can be used to feed lps. However, attention should be paid to the impact of weather events, such as heavy rains, on the quality of piped water, which is also true for freshwater tanks, where water is not replaced by less and water is measured before it is replaced。
I've met a friend at home at the beach and asked if i could go straight to the sea and fight for it
I personally don't recommend it
One is the relatively high pollution of the sea off the coast, the size of the natural waters, their ability to dilute and buffer, and the effects will not be felt for a while, but they will not be the same in the fish tank at home! Second, even if the sea water is not contaminated, and the sea water that is brought back from the sea, there is no guarantee that there are any strange creatures carrying a windmill to your fish tank, some of which are good, others not necessarily。
A key difference in equipment between freshwater and sea-water tanks is the protein separators。
The protein separators can be considered essential for the casks, which control nitrate far less than the freshwater cask, and the eggs solve the problem from the source。
The application of eggs directly affects the design of the casks, which require a filter that can place and use them, so the casks we see are either back (side) filters or bottom filters。
That's the question that was raised at the beginning. Can the freshwater tank be used directly as a water tank? The answer is essentially impossible。
Eggs are subject to certain requirements for filter space, including bottom space (the egg is easier to pick and clean), filter water levels (the proper water level is required for the proper functioning of the egg)。
The requirements of the lamps are different
Both absorb mainly blue light, but the relative demand for herbs lamps is lower, the light is more balanced and the light is also white in perception。
For the casks, blue light and purple light play a major role, while the rest are based on our perception of the human being and lead to excessive and even harmful algae outbreaks。
The water tank needs a wave pump
The water tank needs more water than the freshwater tank
The water tank rarely uses fresh water filters
Fresh water tanks, we'll use all kinds of dirty filters, bacterial houses, ceramic rings, biochemical cotton, etc. These filters are rarely used except for the coral bones that fot uses。
For the casks, many of the scenes in the casks are living stones, man-made stones, etc., which are porelycinous filters with a certain anti-nitrification capacity in addition to nitrification。
There's a volume problem, even with water filters such as tiles, which are sold on a larger scale, without a single grain of fresh water filters, because if broken, a little bit of the anti-nitrochemical capacity that may exist is lost。
Finally, the question of costs is briefly addressed。
It is true that the lower cost of the cask is a little higher than that of the freshwater cask, but it is not as disproportionate as before。
Used to be a variety of imported equipment, the domestic equipment is now fully usable, adequate and no less expensive than imports。
As for biology, let's not look at the expensive, the cheap. At the lower price, the variety of varieties may not be as diverse as fresh water, but it's enough for most people to play. Cheaps are good。
It's like fishing without the air force, you're the god, the second air force, you're the man with the equipment。
