How To Clean And Prolong The Life Of Filter Cotton

First, the higher the density, the more times the filter is cleaned. Secondly, the greater the density of ornamental fish, the higher the cleaning frequency. Third, the more feeding times and the amount of feeding, the more washing.

Under the premise of a reasonable density of your pet fish, in the Filter Cloth, clean it once a week. Wash three times a week with high - density cotton and a magic carpet. There are two cleaning methods: with and without insects.

In the case of insects, such as meringues and melon bugs, you not only have to wash them, but also boil them in boiling water for 20 minutes. Of course, the eggs of a single parasite cannot be burned, you have to be very aware of this. However, please note an important point - It is better to wash by rubbing, not rubbing too hard. This extends the life of the Filter Cloth Material.

How to clean biochemical cotton: The maintenance frequency is much lower than that of filter cotton. Depending on the specific situation, the cycle is usually about two months. Using the water in the tank, a light wipe every time is enough. Do not use tap water because there are many nitrifying bacteria in bio - cotton. If you rinse repeatedly, nitrifying bacteria are easily washed away, which greatly reduces nitrification and causes water quality fluctuations. Biochemical cotton does not need to be replaced frequently. If it is found that the elasticity is weakened, the interior is damaged, and the washing is too heavy, it needs to be replaced.
