How to remove the scale in fish tank
I think the scale of aquarium should refer to the thin film on the water surface. Fish friends are commonly known as "oil film", which is actually protein organic matter separated out of water. There are many ways to solve this oil film:
1. In general, for large-scale fish tanks filtered by overflow, an overflow port will be opened at the water surface to directly guide the oil film into the filtration system for filtration and decomposition.
2. For the small cylinder filtered by means of upper filtration and waterfall, an inlet can be added to the water surface to directly absorb the oil film. If the operation ability is not strong, there are finished products in the aquarium shop and taobao.com, which are called oil removers. But this kind of oil removing membrane device is not recommended to be used on the filter drum, because it may cause a large amount of air to be drawn into the filter drum, interfere with the normal operation of the water pump, or even burn the pump.
3. If the tank is too small, or there is no condition to add oil removal hardware, you can put some 'black Mary'. This kind of upper layer fish always looks for food on the water surface and swallows oil film at the same time. You can also use a small cup to press into the water regularly, and the cup mouth is close to the water surface, so that the water surface overflows into the cup, and the oil film is removed manually.
