磷酸鹽流出來的岩石
很多人,當他們得到他們洗滌器運行的第一次,感到擔心的時候多(不低於)藻類開始生長在他們的岩石。看來真的很奇怪,尤其是當硝酸鹽和磷酸鹽也水漲船高比以前低。正在發生的事情是,磷酸鹽是走出來的岩石。請記住,磷酸鹽是看不見的,所以你只能看到它的效果,它總是“流”從高濃度到低濃度(就像熱量一樣) 。
例如:如果你的房間是溫暖,而你把一個冷的物體放在地上,從室內空氣的熱量將“流”入對象,直到物體與空氣的溫度相同。例2:如果把一個熱物體在地板上,熱量將“流”出的對象和進入空氣在房間裡,再次,直至空氣與物體的溫度相同。現在假設你打開你的窗戶(冬天) 。在你的房間溫暖的空氣會走出去的窗口,它會在寒冷的房間。地板上的對象現在比空氣變暖,所以熱量將流出物和進入空氣,然後窗外。
認為磷酸鹽作為熱量,你的岩石為對象,和你的窗,作為洗滌器。作為滌氣器拉磷酸鹽出來的水,在水中的磷酸鹽水平下降。現在,由於在水中的磷酸鹽水平比在岩石中的磷酸鹽水平較低,磷酸鹽從岩石流入水中,然後從水進入洗滌器。這種情況持續下去,直到在岩石和水的磷酸鹽水平又是電平。請記住,你不能看到這個無形的流量。
這種流動導致了一個有趣的事情發生了。由於磷酸出來的岩石,它就會變為可用盡快磷酸鹽到達那裡是輕的岩石表面飼料藻類。所以,既然岩石的表面粗糙,有輕,它開始變得越來越有藻(不小於)作為磷酸出來的岩石。這是一個非常驚人的事情,看看第一次,因為如果你不知道發生了什麼事你可能會認為,在洗滌器中的藻類被洩露出來,連接到你的岩石。下面是磷酸鹽出來的岩石的跡象:
1,岩石是年齡大了,已經慢慢發展在過去一年中的藻類問題。
2,洗滌器是新的,也許只有幾個月大,而且最近開始生長良好。
3,硝酸鹽和水磷酸鹽測量低,通常是最低的,他們已經在很長一段時間。
4,綠色的頭髮藻類(未棕色)的岩石上在特定的地點有所增加,通常在角落和突起的頂部。
5,玻璃沒有必要清洗一樣多。
由於撇油器,過濾袋等不刪除任何硝酸鹽和磷酸鹽,以及waterchanges和宏觀的在華夫格不要刪除了,大多數人從未見過的迅速出來的岩石大量磷酸鹽的影響。但肯定的是,它的作用。多久繼續嗎? 2個月到一年的時間,這取決於多磷酸鹽是如何在岩石上,你有多強的洗滌器,以及有多少磷酸根去除過濾器有( GFO ,炭投加等) 。但有一天你會看到白色的岩石前一天被覆蓋在綠色的頭髮的補丁;這是藻類從岩石失去磷酸供應一個明確的信號,不能再堅持下去。現在它只是短短幾天之前的岩石是明確的。

Phosphate Flow out of Rocks
Many people, when they get their scrubber running for the first time, get worried when more (not less) algae starts to grow on their rocks. It seems really strange, especially when nitrate and phosphate have gone lower than before. What is happening is that phosphate is coming out of the rocks. Remember, phosphate is invisible, so you can only see the effects of it, and it always "flows" from higher concentrations to lower concentrations (just like heat does).
Example: If your room is warm, and you put a cold object on the floor, heat from the air in the room will "flow" into the object until the object and the air are the same temperature. Example 2: If you put a hot object on the floor, heat will "flow" out of the object and go into the air in the room, again, until the air and the object are the same temperature. Now suppose you open your windows (in the winter). The warm air in your room will go out the windows, and it will get colder in the room. The object on the floor is now warmer than the air, so heat will flow out of the object and into the air, and then out the window.
Think of phosphate as the heat, and your rocks as the object, and your windows as the scrubber. As the scrubber pulls phosphate out of the water, the phosphate level in the water drops. Now, since the phosphate level in the water is lower than the phosphate level in the rocks, phosphate flows from the rocks into the water, and then from the water into the scrubber. This continues until the phosphate levels in the rocks and water are level again. And remember, you can't see this invisible flow.
This flow causes an interesting thing happens. As the phosphate comes out of the rocks, it then becomes available to feed algae as soon as the phosphate reaches the surface of the rocks where there is light. So, since the surface of the rocks is rough and has light, it starts growing MORE algae there (not less) as the phosphate comes out of the rocks. This is a pretty amazing thing to see for the first time, because if you did not know what was happening you would probably think that the algae in the scrubber was leaking out and attaching to your rocks. Here are the signs of phosphate coming out of the rocks:
1. The rocks are older, and have slowly developed algae problems in the past year.
2. The scrubber is new, maybe only a few months old, and has recently started to grow well.
3. Nitrate and phosphate measurements in the water are low, usually the lowest they have been in a long time.
4. Green hair algae (not brown) on the rocks has increased in certain spots, usually on corners and protrusions at the top.
5. The glass has not needed cleaning as much.
Since skimmers, filter socks, etc don't remove any nitrate and phosphate, and waterchanges and macro's in a fuge don't remove much, most people have never seen the effects of large amounts of phosphate coming out of the rocks quickly. But sure enough, it does. How long does it continue? For 2 months to a year, depending on how much phosphate is in the rocks, how strong your scrubber is, and how many other phosphate-removing filters you have (GFO, carbon dosing, etc). But one day you will see patches of white rock that were covered in green hair the day before; this is a sure sign that the algae are losing their phosphate supply from the rocks and can no longer hold on. Now it's just a matter of days before the rocks are clear. |
