What is nitrifying bacteria?
The new cylinder in the absence of nitrifying bacteria in a new environment need to go through a training system, when the nitrification process, which normally takes about 30 days to 45 days or so, nitrifying bacteria is important is that it will be in the water of toxic substances: ammonia (NH3) decomposition out. Ammonia (NH3) is just a waste of fish or bait produced by feeding too much production, ammonia (NH3) would be the presence of fish, aquatic plants, and even fish tanks can be said that all the creatures, constitutes a considerable hazard, as long as excess safe concentration (about 0.5 ppm) which may be caused by biological death. Nitrifying bacteria can be oxidized by nitrification of the ammonia into nitrite is still toxic, and then nitrite into relatively low toxicity of nitrate (NO2), to make their lives away from the threat, known as nitrification, Because nitrifying bacteria at this stage will consume oxygen in the tank, so called nitrifying bacteria to aerobic bacteria (attached to the filter surface, required high level of dissolved oxygen in the environment), if the nitrifying bacteria can grow well in your tank, then I believe the fish children would not be poisoning.
After nitrification, that is the product of post-nitrate, although the toxicity is not so strong, the growth of aquatic plants need nitrate as a fertilizer, but as long as the concentration of 50ppm or more nutrients in the water too much algae will occur on the most likely cause of the phenomenon, and may cause biological growth retardation. Therefore, in addition to cultivate nitrifying bacteria in the tank, we also cultivate photosynthetic bacteria called anaerobes (attached to the bottom filter is required with low dissolved oxygen environment), anaerobic bacteria function is to nitrate through denitrification broken down into the role of nitrogen lost in the air, so that the water the growth of algae Buzhi Yu. In fact, if you do not cultivate anaerobic bacteria, while the advantage of the increased frequency of changing the water to reduce nitrate concentrations commonly used method is the most people.
Anaerobes is called "anaerobic" in its like growing up in an environment with low oxygen concentration, so in the filter, if the choice of drum filters, which can theoretically be greater than the anaerobic bacteria culture drops the upper part of flow filter, but the upper part of the trickle-type filter, it can nurture a large number of nitrifying bacteria, the effects are greater than the cylindrical filter.
Many people often encounter is found in fish tank water in the beginning was the phenomenon of white mist, water quality, odor or fishy smell, and so there are all due to nitrification systems are inadequate, insufficient to meet so many sources of pollution, so the water quality began to collapse. Nitrifying bacteria can indeed break down waste, but the feeding excessive excretion of excessive or long-lost changing the water, or the number of fish, only high density, even down a large number of nitrifying bacteria can not remove the ammonia, so as to achieve a balance between keeping the status of , changing the water main objective is to allow the water to reduce ammonia and nitrates in the water exchange is necessary for the health and supplementary legislation is necessary to add nitrifying bacteria, not just a unilateral adjustment. Fish of the most important thing is water, water quality remained stable, healthy nitrifying bacteria is the only way to fish successfully.
