How to raise water first in fish farming

Raise fish first, then raise water. If you want to raise fish well and not die easily, raising water is the key. How to raise water, please see below:

As we all know, tap water can't be directly used to raise fish, because tap water contains chlorine after being purified by water plants. Therefore, we must treat the water first. The most common method is to expose tap water to the sun for a day. This method is not only environmentally friendly and energy-saving, but also has a good effect. But what if the weather is bad? We can also use aeration, that is, pump water continuously for one day.

When chlorine and impurities in water are removed, it should be oxygenated. Fish friends can use oxygen bottles to pump air into the water. It should be noted that the water at this stage should not continue to be exposed to the sun, otherwise it will lead to a decrease in oxygen.

If the fish you plan to raise requires high hardness and PH value of water, then we need to adjust it. In this regard, Bian Xiao suggested that you can go to the market or buy some related testing instruments on Taobao for testing. At the same time, you can also buy some liquid medicines to adjust the hardness and PH value of water to achieve an environment suitable for your fish.

Hydroponics to this stage, ok? The answer is no, although this water is good from the common indicators and can be used for fish farming, it still has the disadvantage that it is "thin" and unstable. When fish are raised with this water, the water quality will soon deteriorate, because it lacks a function of recycling and self-purification. In other words, we haven't raised the water yet. A great god said that real hydroponics should be carried out in an aquarium with fish. So we need to open the cylinder, and the purpose of opening the cylinder is to establish a nitrification system. Why did you build this? Simply put, nitrifying bacteria produced by nitrifying system can decompose harmful elements such as ammonia and nitrite that endanger the life of fish in aquarium.

There are many ways to open a tank. Let's briefly talk about a common method, that is, first put some small fish or even a small amount of feed in the fish tank to carry out some artificial "pollution". Then add nitrifying bacteria, and the culture of nitrifying bacteria must be carried out in an environment with sufficient oxygen and darkness. Nitrifying bacteria themselves must be attached to something, such as loose and porous substances. I suggest that you can pour the nitrifying bacteria you bought into the filter box and filter bucket. The filter box is special aquarium cotton, which can be attached with nitrifying bacteria. Then in order to increase the survival rate of nitrifying bacteria, we need to increase the production of oxygen. We can turn on the oxygen pump to the maximum and cultivate nitrifying bacteria for 24 hours first. Because nitrifying bacteria are afraid of light, it is best to take measures to avoid light at this time and not to turn on unnecessary lights. A friend once said that the water became turbid after he added nitrifying bacteria. This situation is generally that the nitrifying bacteria you bought are impure and have many impurities. It is recommended that nitrifying bacteria buy imported ones. Okay. Second, there are too many.
