Which koi are easy to keep? The effect of probiotics on koi water quality
What effects do probiotics have on koi water quality? Koi are also very demanding when it comes to water quality, and probiotics can help create good water quality. What effects do probiotics have on koi water quality? They are mainly shown in the following three aspects: 1. The growth of some probiotics will...
1. The growth of some probiotics antagonizes pathogenic bacteria, and the growth of pathogenic bacteria is inhibited, while certain probiotics can produce extracellular polysaccharides, “sticking” to filter media, occupying territory, forming symbiosis with other probiotics, and forming bacterial colonies with even better function, adsorbing suspended particles in the water, so the water quality naturally becomes clear and bright.
2. After probiotics enter the pond water, they can perform roles such as oxidation, ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, sulfur decomposition, sulfuration, and nitrogen fixation, rapidly decomposing animal excrement, leftover bait, plankton residues, chemical drugs, and so on into carbon dioxide, nitrates, phosphates, sulfates, and so on, providing nutrients for the growth and reproduction of unicellular algae, while the photosynthesis of unicellular algae in turn provides dissolved oxygen for the oxidative decomposition of organic matter and the respiration of cultured organisms, forming a virtuous ecological cycle and maintaining and creating an excellent water environment. This is the “algae balance”; in balanced water, the buffering capacity of the water is stronger.
3. Inside the koi, probiotics can aid digestion and improve feed conversion rate, thereby reducing the fish's excrement and, of course, also reducing water pollution.
The combination of multiple probiotics with compound enzyme preparations maintains the balance of the fish digestive tract flora. Health problems in aquatic animals improve markedly, because this product has an intuitive health-care effect on various intestinal problems of aquatic animals, enhances the cellular immune response of aquatic animals, and improves stress resistance.
