How to conserve water in your aquarium cool

Our focus when we keep an aquarium in our homes is the well-being of fish and invertebrates we maintain. And the first step to note, while preparing a list of aquarium accessories for the well-being of the occupants aquarium is to keep the room relatively cool aquarium, especially for aquariums. The ideal temperature for most fish tanks only between 76 degrees and 82 degrees Fahrenheit. If you have fish in the aquarium and the aquarium is filled correctly with aquarium supplies, you just have a 2-6 degree drop in temperature. This will depend on the type of aquarium you keep the temperature drop required to cool the tank.

With fish, it is not always the high temperature that kills. Many dead fish in tanks overheated because of low dissolved oxygen (DO) in water. The warmer water, less dissolved oxygen (DO), it will hold.

Here are some tips to keep your cool water aquarium for your little friends to survive for a long period.

1. If your aquarium is well covered, open the door on your tank, and place the nylon netting on the openings to prevent fish from jumping. This allows heat from escaping. You can contribute to this process further by directing the air flow of a small fan on top of the tank.

2. Close the shades on the windows of the room. Even indirect light will raise the temperature by a degree or two and every little bit counts. You can also reduce the amount of time lighting aquarium. Lights in the reservoir will greatly contribute to a higher temperature. Do not let the lights all the time well. It's bad for fish too! If you have a planted freshwater aquarium, which requires at least eight hours of daylight, you can have no other choice but to buy an air conditioner or cooler to solve your heat.

3. Aerate your aquarium tanks with a strong air pump! This will help to increase the gas exchange surface waters, thus contributing to raising the levels of dissolved oxygen. It will also help the heat exchange surface.

4. Do not unplug your aquarium heater! It is a common mistake that backfires often. An aquarium heater working properly extinguished when the aquarium is the proper temperature. Unplugging the unit can cause the temperature to drop too far into the night in situations where it is warm during the day but cool at night and the windows in the room the aquarium is open.

5. If your aquarium equipment is in a closed cabinet stand below your aquarium, open the cabinet doors and put a fan circulating air in the box office to allow the heat generated by aquarium pumps to escape to

6. Buy an air conditioner! Sometimes the only solution. The cost of operating an air conditioner for a few months is a small price to pay to keep our finned friends alive.
