I want to use it to heat water in the fish tank. Can it be used?

It is best not to heat the water. The following methods can be used to keep fish warm:

In winter and early spring, the weather is often very cold, and various pet fish kept at home, especially tropical fish, , if you do not take effective measures to keep warm, you are likely to freeze to death, or even the fish tank will freeze and burst, and the fish will freeze into popsicles. There are many methods and measures for keeping fish tanks warm. The specific and feasible methods vary from region to region and from family to family. Winter is coming soon, how can we better heat and insulate the fish tank so that it can reach the temperature without using too much electricity?

The simplest thing is to buy an inexpensive heating rod, which costs 20 to 30 yuan. Is it less expensive than using an electric blanket? But if you are raising goldfish or koi, it is recommended that you don’t heat it. It’s okay. As long as the water doesn’t freeze, it’s fine.

There are two types of heaters: one is inside the cylinder and the other is outside the cylinder. Basically, the heaters you see are inside the cylinder. Please read the instructions carefully for operation. The heater outside the cylinder is connected to the filter outside the cylinder. The barrel is integrated and the heating rod basically has a temperature difference. A difference of one or two degrees is normal.

So, first set 27 degrees, and then observe the thermometer every 15 minutes. If the prompt reaches 27 degrees and the light of the heating rod is still on, you should pay attention. If it is still bright over 30 degrees, then you need to lower it by two degrees. Just keep the water temperature at around 28 degrees to 29 degrees. The heating rod has a service life and should be replaced basically once a year. Because this thing is not very expensive. Therefore, it is necessary to have two at home.

Be careful to completely submerge it in the water when using it. After setting the temperature, before turning on the new heater, pay attention to see whether the temperature changes are normal and whether the heater is working properly. If you want to take it out after stopping use, wait for 15 minutes. Cool down, otherwise when encountering cold air or cold water, place it in the tank, and all the heating tube parts must be put into the water, otherwise the tube will burst easily.

There is another way, using solar panels is the best material. Sun panels are usually used to make awnings. They are high-quality and low-priced. They come in two types: thick and thin. We choose the thin one. It has two layers, upper and lower, with a gap in the middle for insulation, similar to corrugated paper. The price is relatively cheap. Another advantage of solar panels is that they are easy to cut and can be easily cut with an ordinary blade. It is worth noting that you need to dig a few holes for leakage of the filter tank and a feeding hole. Side: You can use the car sun protection shield. It is said to be a board, but it is actually a soft cotton insulation layer.

If no one usually watches fish, you can also surround it with foam boards and add a fish tank cover on top of the fish tank, which will have a certain effect. If you find it troublesome, you can only add a fish tank cover, and put it under the sun when there is sunshine. First, it can keep warm, and second, it can also increase oxygen, so that the outdoor oxygen can melt into the water better. Place it in a place where there are people living in it at night. The bedroom can be placed in the living room with sunshine during the day! Just make sure the water is clean and feed less.
