Anyone who is partial to a koi pond knows that the filtration system of the water body is crucial. Whether it's for health and comfort orornamentalanglesdepartures, which are all top priorities.
Whether you are the owner of a private courtyard, a designer or engineer of a garden, or a Koi enthusiast, perhaps the following problems you have not yet encountered, or perhaps once encountered these problems, or perhaps are preparing to design a garden to build a fish pond, I hope to bring you some advice and help after reading, the article is longer, it is recommended that you collect and then patiently read through.
[06] Sterilization and algae inhibition devices are indispensable.
Koi pond filtration system must be equipped with sterilization system, many people think that the ultraviolet sterilizer is to kill green algae, in fact, not, ultraviolet sterilizer in the application of fish pond filtration system and inhibit harmful bacteria, balance the role of microbial flora. Ollies integrated fish pond filter, supporting the corresponding dual-tube ultraviolet germicidal lamp, effectively kill algae, inhibit the growth of germs, and maintain healthy water quality.
[___07] No Reliancewater changeor water flowInstead of filtering
Many people who are new to fish ponds think that if the fish pond is filled with spring water, tap water or well water, you can keep the water clear and healthy as long as you change the water frequently on a regular basis. But it is true.What? - I don't know.
This is a misunderstanding that most people have: that "flowing water does not rot", as long as the water flow up the water quality will not have so many problems, in fact, this theory is not reasonable for the delicate work of fish farming. Flow of water can only increase the water surface of the landscape body of oxygen-rich water for the decomposition of organic matter in the water body to provide enough oxygen, so that it can be quickly decomposed. However, the products of organic decomposition remain in the water and are ultimately utilized by algae growth and reproduction. Of course, very turbulent water flow is able to inhibit the growth of algae, but its cost is very high, basically there is no significance of widespread promotion.
Many veterans know that once the water for Koi is stabilized and becomes old, an ecological chain is formed and an ecosystem is established, and changing the water frequently destroys this ecosystem and is counterproductive. Therefore, no matter how the water source of the koi pond is, no matter whether the water is changed frequently or not, it is necessary to configure the corresponding filtration system.
[08] We can't rely on chemistry.veterinary drugmaybefungiInstead of filtration
Some friends do not do filtration of the fish pond, later rely on micro-organisms or drugs to achieve the effect of water purification, perhaps short-term results can be seen, but this is by no means a long-term solution. This method will fluctuate and rebound, treating the symptoms but not the root cause, unless the fish are sick as a last resort to throw drugs, it is not recommended to use chemicals to maintain the water quality of the fish pond.
[09] Can't rely too much on automatic sewage disposal
Now many koi pond filtration equipment designed with automatic backwashing, automatic sewage function is good, but we all know that Mercedes-Benz BMW need regular maintenance, the same again good filtration equipment, again strong filtration system need to be maintained and cleaned, and really want to raise a good fish is the need to spend a little bit of thought, whether it is the equipment inside the filter media or the traditional filter inside the filter tank filter media need to be regularly cleaned and maintained, cleaned! The frequency of cleaning should be decided according to the density of the fish, the amount of bait we feed, according to the experience of Ollies for many years, it is recommended to clean the filter media once every half a year or once a year.
[10] Consumables and filter media to beregular replacement
After 1 year of operation, the UV germicidal lamp should be replaced in time. Germicidal lamps and other essential fish pond filtration system, like our lighting lamps have a service life, ultraviolet lamps irradiation wavelength with the growth of the use of time will gradually decline, such as the timely replacement may lead to the fish pond water rebound, green algae outbreaks, the ecosystem is out of balance, the most intuitive manifestation of the deterioration of water quality. The practice of both imported and domestic ultraviolet lamps are only one year of effective role, a year after the light may still be bright, but basically no bactericidal algae suppression effect, at this time it is necessary to use similar products to replace.
Replace the filter media in the filtration system or equipment regularly. Filter system or equipment in the filter media is the core, these filter media according to its performance have a use period, time with a long time will be deformed, broken, broken, diluted, melted, etc., part of the cutting-edge filter media released by the far-infrared rays, negative ions, mineral elements, etc. has reached its limit, such as timely replacement will lead to water rebound, ecosystem imbalance, and so on.
It is recommended that they be inspected and replaced periodically according to the manufacturer's requirements in order to continue normal use.
