If there is a problem with the water quality of the fish tank, there will be some signs in advance. Don't wait until it is serious.

Hello, all aquarists, I am a veteran fish farmer. I will grow water easily and happily with you. Please pay attention to fish friends!

The veteran fish farmer often finds certain aquarists who ask questions about fish diseases. The water quality of the fish tank is no longer available. At this time, my heart is so angry. Why did you go early? Think of water conditioning? Is it a bit too late...

Besides, there is no trapped water on hand, and there is nothing to say if there is no room to change the water.

The water quality of the fish tank is not good, there will be many and many precursors, and it is indeed similar to what we expect, smell, ask, and cut.

Hope, just look at the color of the water, needn't say this, right? Dark yellow and white turbidity is not a good jar of water

In addition to various causes of fading, the dark yellow water color must indicate too much organic matter or algae, reminding us that we should change the water, in this case, most of it is caused by the water quality being too old.

Most of the white turbidity is biological turbidity.

Especially every time we finish feeding normally, the water quality of the fish tank can be quickly restored.

Then, suddenly on a certain day, or at a certain stage, the water quality is difficult to recover, and it is getting heavier, which also proves that the water quality cannot be effectively maintained. It may require frequent and small water changes, or stop food, or perhaps raise The density is too big.

The rest ask the ornamental fish, are they sick again?

There are also various impurities, white mists, and white hairs, sticking to the wall of the tank, and a large number of fine bubbles on the surface of the water begin to gather, but we should be able to see all the eyes with open eyes.

Smell is also very important. There is a musty and fishy smell. Where does it come from, how can I not understand?

As long as there is a lot of musty smell in the fish tank or in the filter cotton or filter tank, at least it proves that there is too much mold in the fish tank. It should be ventilated, wipe the tank wall, and clean the filter cotton.

It is very likely that the filter material has blocked impurities, and mold grows under the cylinder head or on the surface of the water. These problems are repeated over and over again, and the judgment method is not difficult, right?

To put it bluntly, the organic matter is fermented, moldy, the fish tank is covered too tightly, and so on.

The strong fishy smell is mostly related to the ornamental fish itself.

When the ornamental fish has no disease, the fishy smell is very small and can be ignored. As long as the fishy smell is very heavy, it is very likely that the ornamental fish is seriously ill, depressed, or dead fish have appeared, and we have not found it yet.

Ask, of course, ask yourself first, all the questions are in ourselves

Needless to say about washing cotton and changing water, ask yourself how often you change the water.

Also, have you added new fish recently? Have you fed too much recently? The water temperature has fluctuated up and down, and the filter and filter media have been moved.

My hands are itchy again, and I start to add ingredients to the fish tank. What do you add medicine, salt, water purifier, nitrifying bacteria, milk, vinegar, and soy sauce?

It's about to be made into a pot of boiled fish. What water quality is there still worried about?

Cut is to pay attention to all changes in the state of the ornamental fish

There are only a few changes in the state of ornamental fish, nothing more than body color, brightness, cruising, feeding, fighting, etc.

As long as the aquarium fish is always not in the normal state of cruising, or in the desire to eat, something must be wrong. As for the abnormal state, I have said it countless times, so let's observe it for yourself.

Through the above-mentioned methods, coupled with what I call reverse conditioning water quality, generally speaking, it can be handled well.

Water quality problems must be discovered early and adjusted early. Even if there is no time to adjust, they must be detected early and be moderately observed, and prepare for water traps in advance, in case it is not necessary.

Don't underestimate that bucket of trapped water, it can solve any water quality problems.
