How To Use The Common Filter Cotton On The Market?

There are many types of Filter Cotton on the market. So what kind of filter cotton should be put in what kind of cylinder. Currently, the best - selling filters on the market are 2 - 3 cm thick filters, and there are some filters that are about 1 cm thick.

The filter tank of the small fish tank is small and shallow, so there is no way to put too much Filter Cloth Material. Most small fish friends don't understand this, so they buy thick filter cotton, put it in it, and raise the fish. Aquarium water is the result of the combined action of filter cotton, nitrifying bacteria and various beneficial bacteria. The filter cotton filters out most of the impurity particles, and the nitrifying bacteria and various beneficial bacteria break down the remaining small particles, which are not filtered out until the aquarium water becomes clear.

Since the filter tank of the small fish tank is relatively small, there is no way to place more bacterial culture materials, and there is no more living space for nitrifying bacteria, so the number of nitrifying bacteria is limited. Therefore, the cleaning of the Filter Media For Fish Tank can only be carried out with filter cotton. Because the density of ordinary hard fluff filter cotton is relatively low. When we filter, we can see the water infiltrate directly from a point, and the filter cotton is placed directly, it can only filter out large particles of garbage, but not small particles. So the tank water is mixed. Placing the high - density filter cotton directly in the fish tank filter media can solve the problem of water mixing caused by filtering tiny particles, but the density of the high - density filter cotton is relatively high.
If the high - density Filter Fabric is placed directly in the filter tank, it is easy to block the water if fed multiple times. Our solution is to put high - density filter cotton at the bottom of the filter tank, and then put 1 - 2 layers of low - density filter cotton, which can not only ensure a good filter cotton effect, but also solve the problem of water mixing.
