How to pre-build pipes in a fish pond filtration system

Nowadays, a Koi pond is a basic standard in both villa gardens and private homes. A strong pond filtration system is essential to keep the huge and demanding koi. However, many people do not know much about fish pond filtration systems. Today we explain in detail what pipes are used in a fish pond filtration system and how they are pre-built.

The so-called "design first, construction later", the design of the fish pond filtration system, pipeline cable buried with the main part of the fish pond synchronization planning, to avoid unreasonable rework or rebuild after operation.

One, face discharge piping:

It is used to collect suspended dirt such as fallen leaves and foam on the surface of the fish pond, and enter the sedimentation tank through the surface discharge pipe to participate in filtration.

Surface discharge pipe buried height of 25-30CM below the water level line, the mouth of the pipe reserved 15CM or so, to be fully installed after cutting part of the pipe, the installation of elbows, connecting the surface discharge collector, the surface discharge collector height and the water level line flush, the elbow connection is not glue, depending on the circumstances of the elbow to adjust the water level line.

II. Pump piping:

That is, the piping of fresh water from the fresh water silo pumped through the pump to the fish pond.

Pre-embedded height of 15CM below the water level line, the mouth of the pipe is reserved for about 15CM, to be fully installed after cutting some of the pipeline, the installation of the elbow, so that the water goes along the inner wall of the fish pond, the elbow connection is not glued, depending on the situation, turn the elbow to adjust the position of the water outlet.

III. Bottom drain piping:

Many call it an automatic drain pipe. As the name suggests, it is a pipe pre-buried at the very bottom of the fish pond to collect fish feces, dead grass and leaves, and other bottom-sinking type of dirt, which enters into the filtration tank to participate in filtration through the bottom discharge pipe.

Pipe material selection of UPVC water supply pipe, pipe specifications depending on the water storage capacity of the fish pond (commonly used 75, 90MM). The choice of bottom outlet needs to be based on the size of the fish pond area to do a reasonable planning, the interval of 1.5M-3M is appropriate. Pipeline as far as possible directly to the sedimentation tank, or according to the site using 45 degrees (also known as 135 degrees) elbow adjustment, try not to use 90 degrees (also known as right-angle) elbow.

IV. Sewerage:

It is pre-buried in the sewage bin of the filtration pool. If it is an above ground fish pond, the sewage pipe can be installed at the bottom of the sewage bin, controlled by the valve and manually discharged; if it is a sunken or semi-submerged fish pond, the lower edge of the sewage pipe is at the water level line at 3-5CM, and it can be set up for fully automatic sewage discharge through the pipeline and water pump.

V. Turnover plumbing:

That is, from the previous level of filtration into the next level of filtration of the connecting pipe, commonly used in the traditional filtration pool. Sedimentation warehouse to the physical warehouse turn water pipe buried in the depth of one-half of the depth of the filtration tank, the rest of the warehouse turn water pipe buried in the depth of one-third of the depth of the filtration tank.

Install an elbow at the outlet of the water turnover pipe with the elbow facing upwards, so that the sewage can flow through the filtering material to a greater extent and achieve a better purification effect. If the area of the filtering pool is too small for normal construction, the water turning plate can be used instead.

VI. Oxygenation pipes:

A small oxygen pipe has a big problem. Most people in the design of the fish pond did not consider the pre-buried oxygen pipe, but the oxygen pipe external, so it is difficult to achieve full coverage of the fish pond aeration, and the external oxygen pipe is very difficult to see, affecting the overall aesthetics.

Oxygen pipe pre-buried depth and bottom discharge pipe in the same plane, the inlet pipe to the outlet must be evenly distributed, otherwise there will be uneven aeration or even one side of the air out of the side of the embarrassing situation (it is recommended that the oxygen outlet for an even number of ports). Semi-submersible fish tanks also need to pay attention to the oxygen pipe access to the oxygen pump must be higher than the surface of the water before, otherwise the fish tank water will flow back.

Each type of filtration has its unique advantages and disadvantages. And it applies to different fish ponds. What kind of filtration method should be used? And the size of the fish pond, ornamental fish species, fish environment, grass-based or fish-based, fish density ...... and other factors have a lot to do with the choice of filtration, so the choice of filtration methods, depending on the specific circumstances.
