Izizathu ze-Algae
Amanzi aluhlaza ema-tank ovunguvungu uvame ukubangelwa ama-algae wona ngokwawo akulimazi kakhulu. Kodwa-ke, kubalulekile ukuhlola izimo emathangi okungabangela ukukhuphuka kwama-algae njengoba kungabonisa ezinye izinkinga ezingase zibe yingozi. Noma kunini lapho unenkinga yamanzi (amanzi anamafu noma amnandi, noma amazinga aphezulu e-ammonia noma i-nitrate), izinto zokuqala zokuhlola ziyi-tank yakho nezindlela zokuhlunga.
Izimo Ezikhuthaza Amalunga Algae
I-Algae ivame ukukhula kahle emathanini e-turtle ngenxa yenani lezintuthu zokuvotela ezikhiqiza ezenza izakhi zomzimba. Okokuqala, qiniseka ukuthi i-turtle isesitini esikhulu ngokwanele - itanki elincane kakhulu lingabangela imikhiqizo edocekile kakhulu futhi iphelele ekukhuleni kwe-algae. Njengomthetho jikelele, itanki kufanele ibambe okungenani amalitha angu-10 wamanzi nge-inch of tortle - ngisho nokukhulu kuncono. Lokhu kusho ukuthi i-turtle ekhulile idinga i-tank emikhulu kunezingamakhilogremu angu-100. Uma ithangi lincane kakhulu, ikhwalithi yamanzi iyoba nzima kakhulu ukulondoloza, futhi impilo kanye nenhlalakahle ye-tortle yakho isengozini.
Ukuthola i-Filter Engakwesokudla
Isihlungi esinamandla kakhulu isinyathelo esilandelayo, mhlawumbe uhlobo lokuhlunga uhlobo lwe-canister lwalinganiswa ngetanki kathathu kuya kwesine ubukhulu be-tank yakho yangempela ye-tortle; ama-turtles empeleni ayamahloni futhi adinga ukuhlunga okunye. ( Isitolo sesilwane singakusiza ukhethe eyodwa.) Ukondla i-turtle esitsheni esisodwa kungasiza ukunciphisa inani lemfucuza emanzini angabangela ukukhula kwe-algae.
Uma uhlanza isihlungi, ungayisilalisa igciwane noma usebenzise amanzi ashisayo ngempela ukuwahlanza, ngoba awufuni ukubulala amabhaktheriya azuzayo amachweba. Ama-bacterium amahle adingekayo ukuze ahlaziye imikhiqizo yamfucuza.
I-Tank Lighting
Qiniseka ukuthi izibani ku-tank yakho ye-tortle azikho isikhathi eside kakhulu. Izibani kufanele zibe ngamahora angu-12 noma ngaphezulu ngosuku; uma zihlala isikhathi eside zingasiza ekukhuleni kwe-algae (ingasaphathwa ngokucindezela i-tortle yakho).
Ungalingeki ukusika ukukhanya kakhulu-nakuba izibani zifaka isandla ekukhuleni kwe-algae, ukukhanyisa okufanele (kokubili ukusipha kanye ne-UVA / UVB) kubaluleke kakhulu empilweni yakho. Kodwa-ke, uma ithangi lithola ilanga eliqondile, ukulikhupha ngaphandle kokukhanya lingasiza kakhulu.
Ikhwalithi Yamanzi
Ukugcina i-tank ihlanzekile kubalulekile ekukhwaleni ikhwalithi yamanzi futhi kuzosiza nabalandeli (bheka Ukugcina i-Turtle Tank Clean yakho usizo). "I-dilution iyisisombululo sokungcola" njengoba kusho leli gama. Gcina engqondweni kungase kube khona amanye ama-algae e-tank futhi mhlawumbe ngisho nasegobolondo lakho-ukuzama ukususa ngokuphelele i-algae akudingekile futhi akudingekile. Umgomo ukugcina izilwanyana zilawulwa, kodwa okubaluleke kakhulu, qinisekisa ukuthi izinga lemanzi lihle.
Ungaphinda ungene ezilwaneni ezidla ama-algae njengezinkinobho kanye nama-plecostomuses. Kodwa-ke, i-tortle yakho ingase idle kuzo ngakho kuzodingeka ubeke esikhundleni sayo ngokuqhubekayo.
