Fish tanks are an essential item for fish breeders, but the water in many fish tanks becomes turbid after a while. So what should you do if the water in the fish tank is always turbid? How to clean the dirty surface of the fish tank? The following editor will explain them one by one, hoping to help you.

What to do if the fish tank is always turbid

1. Too many microorganisms. The massive reproduction of microorganisms causes turbidity in the water, giving people a foggy feeling, which is also called biological turbidity.

2. Improper addition of chemical substances, such as nutrients, water purifiers, potassium permanganate, etc., in excessive amounts will also cause water turbidity. Therefore, do not add drugs casually, as this will not be good for the fish.

3. If there are not enough nitrifying bacteria and the feeding is improper, the excess food and fish feces cannot be decomposed in the water, which will cause the water quality to deteriorate and make the water turbid.

How to clean the dirty surface of the fish tank

1. First, when cleaning the algae on the glass wall of the fish tank, it is recommended to use soft cloth or cotton. If there is biochemical cotton, it is recommended to use biochemical cotton. Biochemical cotton has a certain strength, but it is soft. It can clean the fish tank without scratching the glass.

One thing to avoid: using hard metal for cleaning, or using unclean cleaning cloth or cotton containing sand, metal pieces, etc., to avoid scratching the glass.

2. If there is algae on the edge of the glass glue between the glass of the aquarium, it is recommended to use a soft-bristled toothbrush to brush it lightly. Because this place usually only grows brown algae, and brown algae are the easiest to clean. Remember not to use a blade or other tools to scrape it, so as not to accidentally cut the glass glue and cause the fish tank to leak.
3. After cleaning the fish tank, you should also change the water. There is a rule for changing water, that is, you must not change all the water. If the fish tank is very dirty, you can only change two-thirds of the water, no more. Because changing all the water is equivalent to giving the creatures in the fish tank a completely new living environment, the water temperature will be completely different, and the fish and shrimp will not adapt and will get sick or even die. Generally speaking, it is recommended to change one-third of the water.
