Instruction
1. If water in your aquarium dimmed, first of all check operability of the filter or its power. Do not try to save on the filter for an aquarium, buying it for the smaller volume of an aquarium. The filtering element can not cope with water purification, and it will dim.
2. Also water can dim at so-called "start" of a new aquarium. In this case the new filter contains insufficient quantity of bacteria which could neutralize waste of activity of fishes. For the solution of this problem add to your aquarium several liters of water from other aquarium in which transparent water.
3. If there is no opportunity to get water from other aquarium, then it is necessary to change water more often, and after that to add to water of dry bacteria and liquid enzymes. These special means can be bought in pet-shop.
4. Also the low-quality fish forage can be the cause of turbidity. Such forage becomes heavy at once and falls on a bottom, fishes do not manage to pick up it. At the bottom the forage begins to decay and therefore small fishes do not eat it. Besides, water grows turbid also from an uneaten live forage. Falling on a bottom, worms bury in soil and there perish. Therefore give a live forage in the small portions and you watch that fishes ate it completely.
5. Also water in an aquarium will be muddy if you overfeed fishes. Do not allow to feed small fishes to small children, or let them do it under your supervision. From a reforage can arise not only zamutneny waters, but also diseases of small fishes.
6. If in your aquarium there are not enough snails, then water too will become over time muddy as snails are the only hospital attendants of a bottom who eat the forage which fell down and lying under a layer of stones. The more at you will be snails, the your aquarium will be cleaner.
7. Also water can dim from a dead small fish. Attentively examine an aquarium, glance under stones, in underwater grottoes and jewelry. If you find a small fish, immediately remove her from water, and in an aquarium pour the special disinfecting solution. Only get acquainted with a dosage of cultivation of such medicine not to do much harm to the remained inhabitants of an aquarium.
