life support system
Generally, the water body of the acrylic fish tank is larger than that of the ordinary household fish tank. Therefore, it is necessary to be equipped with a corresponding life support system. In fact, whether it is a small family aquarium or a large aquarium, fish need a series of equipment to maintain their vital signs. Such a system is a life support system, which is called a life support system. The life support system consists of a circulatory system, a disinfection system, and a biochemical system. These systems work together as a whole to deal with the fatalities produced by fish survival. The structure of the life support system differs greatly between fish and aquatic organisms.
Depending on the life characteristics and needs of different organisms, some may need to add a temperature control system, and some may need to add special mineral elements to survive. The life-sustaining equipment commonly used in the home includes ultraviolet sterilizers, protein removers, and outer tube filtration systems. Of course, large fish and other professional species are reproduced by aquariums or other professional units, and the investment in their related life support systems is unaffordable for ordinary enthusiasts. At the same time, the professional knowledge is also high. Commonly used life-support equipment in aquariums includes protein skimmers. Ozone generator, biochemical filter. Activated carbon filter and other equipment. in short. Life support systems may be built “to adapt to fish.”
Pay attention to whether there are scratches and scratches on the surface of the fish tank. Whether there is a nodular circular vortex in the middle of the plate. Surface sink marks (especially at the corners), cracks. Pockmarks, mildew spots, alkali marks, watermarks. Air bubbles and foreign impurities. The glass fish tank has high transparency. It is not easy to produce scratches and has strong pressure resistance. The glass fish tank is glued with silicone. The safety of the glued joint depends on whether the thickness of the glue is uniform. Whether there are bubbles in the glue.
Acrylic sheet manufacturers explain the advantages of acrylic fish tanks
Compared with glassfish tanks, acrylic fish tanks have the advantages of lighter weight, more shapes, and better weather resistance, so they are very popular in recent years. The price of a good acrylic fish tank is several times that of an ordinary glass fish tank. In fact, the quality of traditional glass fish tanks is stable, and after years of washing and polishing, they are still strong and bright. Let’s take a look at whether an acrylic fish tank is better or a glass fish tank. As a reference for everyone to buy.
acrylic fish tank
Advantages: From the appearance, the acrylic fish tank has bright colors, high brightness, strong plasticity, and large changes in shape. Most of the fish tanks with special shapes that we see now are made of acrylic, which is easier to process and shape than glass fish tanks and has good aesthetics. The acrylic aquarium has good weather resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and excellent heat preservation performance. The acrylic aquarium has good light transmittance, which can reach more than 92%. The required light intensity is small and energy is saved. The acrylic aquarium has strong impact resistance. It is 16 times that of ordinary glass and has a long service life. Acrylic is lightweight. It is half lighter than ordinary glass, and the load on buildings and brackets is less.
Disadvantages: The acrylic fish tank has low abrasion resistance and is easy to scratch. Generally, acrylic materials cannot withstand the “friction of years”. Slight scratches will appear over time. Although it is very beautiful and light at first, it will eventually suffer more or less minor damage, which will affect the aesthetics of viewing. And once the bottom sand is used, the bottom of the fish tank will wear out. Acrylic can withstand a high temperature of 120°C, while ordinary composite acrylic fish tanks can only withstand a high temperature of 90°C, which is easy to burn out. This problem does not exist with glass fish tanks.
How about the glass fish tank?
Advantages: The glass fish tank is a time-tested product. It has good abrasion resistance and can be cleaned at will. There are many kinds of glass fish tanks, such as ordinary glass fish tanks, float glass fish tanks, and tempered glass fish tanks. The transparent float glass is dark green in color, with a smooth surface without ripples, good perspective, and a certain degree of toughness. It is a good aquarium material. The bending strength of tempered glass is 4-5 times higher than that of ordinary glass. The impact strength is 5 times higher than ordinary glass. The major feature of tempered glass fish tanks is safety, so all villas and shopping malls use large tempered glass fish tanks.
Disadvantages: The traditional glass fish tank has no obvious disadvantages, but the weight is relatively heavy. At present, the price of a glass aquarium is slightly more expensive than the ordinary acrylic aquarium, but it is lower than that of the acrylic aquarium with better material. It depends on which one is suitable when buying.
When choosing a fish tank, we must consider the size and quality of the fish tank. The fish tank is where the fish live. Without a good living environment, it cannot grow normally and healthily. Therefore, we need to know the precautions for choosing a fish tank, which can help everyone raise fish well.
The acrylic fish tank is one of the best fish tanks on the fish market. Not only the advantages of its materials but also its auxiliary equipment, it is called perfect. This acrylic fish tank made of plexiglass will occupy an important position in the aquarium. These precautions for buying fish tanks hope to help you.
1. To understand the material and manufacturing process of the fish tank, you also need to consider the thickness of the fish tank, the smoothness and roughness of the inner wall, the brightness and beauty of the color, and the conditions for heat absorption, heat dissipation, landing, and heat dissipation.
2. The difference between acrylic fish tanks and ordinary fish tanks lies in the material of acrylic fish tanks. In other words, the corrosion resistance and strength of ordinary glass fish tanks are not as good as acrylic fish tanks, and they have defects in all seasons. Under the conditions of exposure to the sun or cold, ordinary glass is easy to break, and it will break with a slight impact. Acrylic fish tanks show their advantages.
3. There is no difference between the transparency of acrylic fish tanks and ordinary glass, and the transparency is very good, which is unmatched by ordinary fish tanks. Its surface is transparent and bright, easy to watch, and has various shapes, so the acrylic fish tank can be made into various styles, and it is not easy to deform and fade. Acrylic fish tanks have a very long service life. Generally up to more than 10 years.
4. At home, fish tanks are often moved, and most acrylic fish tanks are light in weight and easy to move, which can provide the best growth environment for fish.
Acrylic sheet manufacturers talk in detail about the purchase and maintenance of acrylic fish tanks
The acrylic fish tank has excellent weather resistance, especially for outdoor use, ranking first among other plastics, with good surface hardness and gloss, and processing plasticity. Acrylic can be made into various shapes and products. In addition, there are many kinds of boards with rich colors (including translucent swatches). Another feature of acrylic sheets is that the thick sheet can still maintain high transparency.
1. buy and place the acrylic fish tank
First of all, the fish tank should be rectangular or round. Irregular or triangular fish tanks should not be used. The height of the fish tank for raising fish should not be too high, and the position of the horizontal surface should not exceed the height of the heart of the average person. Because from the perspective of Chinese medicine, the human heart is fire, and the fish tank contains water, which is not good for people. Do not bend your knees when you are in a low position, as this will cause treading on the water.
If the water does not flow, it will ruin your fortune. Of course, you must also pay attention to the viewing value, too high and unstable, not safe for your family. Fish tanks raise fish, precious and delicate fish are not easy to survive, and it is not good to die often. Specific to the living room fish farming, the size of the fish tank, the number, and types of fish farming are all self-help. As long as it meets the five elements of Yin and Yang, it should be odd and even, the number of words does not match the number of rivers, and the color is single and small, and it can only be different from others.
Pay attention to fish farming in the living room, and don’t destroy the Feng Shui in the living room. Never put the fish tank behind the sofa. According to Feng Shui theory, backing by water is unreliable. Because water is impermanent, it is difficult to find stability by relying on it as a backing. Putting the fish tank behind the sofa and the family sitting there every day will feel that it is reliable without mountains, which will affect the stability of the house’s transportation. If the fish tank is placed next to the sofa, it will not hinder the traffic and Feng Shui of the house. At the same time, the fish tank should not collide with the stove. The fish tank is filled with water, but the stove in the kitchen is a fire. Because water and fire are incompatible, if the fish tank in the living room collides with the stove in the kitchen, it will affect the health of the family in terms of feng shui.
Also, the fish tank for raising fish should not be placed under or beside the god, because god is also a heavy object, so try to avoid placing the fish tank in a straight line with the god to avoid the collision. At the same time, the fish tank cannot be placed under the God of Wealth. Feng Shui says that wealth belongs to wealth, wealth should be placed in a prosperous position, and fish tanks for fish farming should be placed in a reclining position and cannot be put together. If you put them together, one of them is definitely wrong.
