People who breed fish need to know how to correctly determine the quality of water suitable for the life of the inhabitants of the aquarium, and take the necessary measures in time.
Water for normal life in the aquarium should be clear, colorless and odorless. We will pour the water we have into a white enamel vessel, all the flaws will be visible in it. If our water is clear and colorless, then it can still smell if it was poured from a tap. The water must stand for at least three days. If you have a new aquarium, then defend the water already in it.
After 3 days, the smell will go away and the water will become suitable for the inhabitants. After that, you can lay the soil in the aquarium, plant the algae and start the fish.
Rinse the soil and shells well under running water, be sure to boil in a large amount of water for 40 minutes, drain the water, cool it all down and then put it in the aquarium.
Remember that water for the aquarium cannot be taken from wells, as it is very hard and contains a lot of salts. Do not take water from reservoirs that receive wastewater from various enterprises, and there are many heavy metals and toxic substances in such water. It turns out that the most optimal thing is to take it from the tap.
