Research On Acrylic: Acrylic Fish Tank

Acrylic fish tank is a high-grade aquarium products, cylinder overall transparent seamless, more than ordinary glass aquarium beauty and safety performance. Acrylic fish tanks with high transparency, light transmission rate of 92%, the "plastic crystal" reputation. And we have excellent weathering resistance, especially applied to outdoor, ranking the highest in other plastics, and both a good surface hardness and gloss, processing plasticity, acrylic fish tank can be made of shape and products require. Another sheet of a wide variety of rich colors (including semi-transparent color palette), acrylic aquarium the other is characterized by thick still maintain a high level of transparency.

Advantages compared with ordinary glass aquarium

1, weathering and acid properties.
2, acrylic aquarium long life, compared to other materials tank, long life more than three years.
3, light and good, up to 92% smaller required light intensity to save energy.
4, impact resistance, sixteen times that of ordinary glass.
5, excellent insulation properties.
6, acrylic fish tank light weight, lighter than ordinary glass half, small buildings and the load on the bracket.
7, colorful, high brightness, other materials can not Bimei.
8, plasticity, shape changes, molding easy.
9, easy to maintain, easy to clean, rain water can naturally clean with soap and a soft cloth or scrub.

Note cognitive acrylic aquarium

Pay attention to whether the surface acrylic aquarium scratch, scratch, without nodules circular vortex, surface sink marks (particularly around the corner), cracks, hemp spot, mildew, alkali tracks, water stains, without bubbles and intermediate plate foreign impurities. Transparent acrylic tank, easy to produce scratches, strong pressure resistance. Acrylic fish tank is made of silicone glue, glue security depends on the thickness of the coating is uniform agreement, if there is a bubble gum.

Acrylic aquarium maintenance

1, cleaning
General dust processing, you can use feather duster or rinse, then wipe with a soft cloth. If the disposal of surface oil, the available soft detergent water, scrub it with a soft cloth.
2, waxing
To make the product glamorous, you can use liquid polishing wax, with a soft cloth to wipe evenly to achieve their goals.
3, adhesion
If the product accidentally damaged, you can use IPS adhesive glue / adhesive or adhesive drying agent methylene chloride followed by the class of.
4, polishing
If the article is scratched or surface wear is not very serious, you can try using a polishing machine (or car waxing machine) fitted cloth wheel, dip the right amount of liquid polishing wax, uniform lighting can be improved.

Acrylic aquarium life support system

General Since acrylic aquarium fish tank compared to ordinary household water is bigger, so they need with appropriate life-support systems. In fact, whether it is a small home aquarium fish tank or in a large body of water in which the fish to survive and multiply, also requires a series of life-sustaining equipment to achieve the purpose of the signs, such a system is a life support system , referred to as the life-support systems. Life-support systems generally by the circulatory system, disinfection systems and biological systems components. Each system together to form a whole, common process fish waste to survive, for different fish and aquatic organisms have to configure a large difference in life-support systems, to be according to the needs of life and survival characteristics of different organisms living design appropriate systems, some organisms may need to add temperature control system, and some may need to add special mineral elements to survive. Vitamin devices used at home generally includes an ultraviolet disinfection, in addition to protein, a tank outside the filtration system. Of course, highly specialized species of large fish still have the specialized units like the aquarium to breed, into its associated life-support systems is not an ordinary enthusiasts can afford, at the same time, professional knowledge is also required high. Marine museum common living facilities include protein skimmer, ozone generator, biological filters, activated carbon filters and other equipment. In short, life support systems may be set up "difference based on fishes".
