arises as duff?
dead plants, uneaten food, excrement and the like to accumulate on the ground and is colonized by bacteria and micro-organisms and decomposed. It is, if you will, a precursor of the sediment, the first step towards the formation of sludge.
What causes sludge?
found in these Mulmflocken take an important part of the mineralization, so the elimination of all forms of waste in the aquarium, as in the biofilms. Sludge is more important carriers of the disposal and if you like detoxification in the aquarium. The sludge stabilized with the substances and the pH value in the aquarium and impressed with him in essential parts.
What becomes of the duff?
Man this Mulmflocken also found in the filter. Here is on the ground is often a thick layer. Since the lower areas are still sparsely populated or not with bacteria and microorganisms, it is called by the filter mud.
other hand, duff is populated by saprophytic germination, who find optimal conditions. Gründelnde particularly fish such as catfish and loaches come into contact with these bacteria and can become infected. When the armored catfish known Barteleinschmelzungen are a result of these infections. Remove this sludge layer can defuse this situation.
It is also useful part of the sludge in the filter and left in the aquarium, for he met, as we have seen, an important function and stabilizes the pH value.
