Can silicophosphate crystals be put in fish tanks
Silicon phosphorus crystal has a good anti-scale effect, and there is an electric heating rod in the fish tank, which will produce scale during the heating process. So some clients asked. I wonder if I could put some silicon and phosphorus pellets in the fish tank.
Let's break it down:
1.The fish tank is basically placed indoors, and the water is basically changed once in a while. The water in the aquarium absorbs heat from the air, making the water in the aquarium the same temperature as the environment.
2. Non-tropical fish in order to prevent winter days frozen dead fish tanks are equipped with electric heating devices.
3. The heating device of tropical fish is basically constant temperature all year round.
Let's take a look at the effect of water temperature on silicon and phosphorus crystals: rising temperature will accelerate the melting of silicon and phosphorus crystals, and large spheres will break if the temperature changes too much. When the spheres break up, the silica-phosphorus crystals dissolve faster. The main component of silicon phosphorus crystal is phosphate, too high concentration will lead to an increase in salt in the water, if you raise freshwater fish consequences you should be able to think of it! If it's a saltwater fish, having more salt doesn't make a big difference. Phosphoric acid in silicon phosphorus crystals is a nutrient-rich substance, and a high concentration of water means that more nutrients are available to microorganisms. Because of the above considerations, it is not recommended to put silicon phosphorus crystals in fish tanks.
