Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide preferable environment to fishes and waterweed plants without giving unpleasant feeling to observers by mixing a carbon dioxide- housing body with an additive having deodorizing or water quality-improving effect. CONSTITUTION:A sucking disk 11 is absorbed to the side of a water tank 1 so as to sink a whole diffusing device 12 in water A of the water tank 1. By carrying out rotation operation of a control valve 8 in this state, a water-soluble substance 14 attached to the outer circumference of a natural zeolite 15 is gradually scattered together with carbon dioxide B in a gas cylinder and carbon dioxide B containing a main component of the water soluble substance 14 is fed out from a connecting port 7 through a feeding pipe 9 into the diffusing device 12. Then, the carbon dioxide is formed into fine bubbles when the carbon dioxide is passed through the porous film. A waterweed plant 4 in the water tank adsorbs carbon dioxide B.

The aquatic plant 4 in the aquarium 1 absorbs carbon dioxide B contained in the water A during the process of photosynthesis, and releases oxygen while producing starch and cellulose which constitute the plant. Further, the main component of the water-soluble substance 14 constituting the deodorant 13 dissolved in the water A, that is, tannin, deodorizes a bad odor such as water odor by adsorbing the odorous component,
Moreover, it has an effect of sterilizing the floating microorganisms generated in the water tank 1. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a large amount of buoyant microorganisms from being generated in the water tank 1 without changing the water for a long time.
The white turbidity is reduced, the transparency and brilliance of the water A are increased, and the malodor is not emitted to the outside of the aquarium 1. Furthermore, since floating organisms include organisms involved in fish diseases, when rearing freshwater fish with aquatic plants 4,
Although fish can become ill, water-soluble substances 14 also kill these types of airborne microorganisms, significantly reducing the incidence of fish disease. Further, since the deterioration of the water quality in the aquarium 1 is suppressed as much as possible, the generation of unsightly algae is also reduced, and a favorable environment for the aquatic plant 4 and the fish is obtained.

Further, in this embodiment, the cylinder 6 is used as the carbon dioxide container, but this can be applied to all the things in which carbon dioxide B is enclosed. Cylinder 6 in this embodiment
In this case, since the deodorant 13 and other admixtures can be enclosed at the same time as the carbon dioxide B is enclosed, a large-scale device is not required and the production can be easily performed. Further, the diffuser 12 constituting the supply device 10 is provided with the porous filter 18, and the carbon dioxide B and the water-soluble substance 14 are contained in the water A in the water tank 1.
It becomes easy to melt into. Therefore, the effect of the water-soluble substance 14 can be immediately exhibited, and the carbon dioxide B is also rapidly taken into the aquatic plant 4. Furthermore, since the diffuser 12 can be installed movably in the water tank 1 by the suction cup 11 which is a detachable mounting member, its installation position can be appropriately changed according to the kind of the admixture enclosed in the cylinder 6. . For example, if an air freshener is enclosed in the cylinder 6,
When the diffuser 12 is installed near the water surface, a preferable scent is more easily diffused to the outside than the water A. On the other hand, it is desirable that the deodorant 13 and the sterilizing agent be arranged so that these admixtures diffuse to some extent throughout the water A in the water tank 1. In particular, when the suction cup 11 in the embodiment is used as the mounting member, the workability at the time of mounting the device can be greatly improved.

In the water tank device having the above structure, an air pump
When 33 is started and the air C is taken in from the air pump 33, the air C is sent to the admixture containing portion 36 via the tube 35. When the air C passes through the deodorant 13 from one of the mesh plates 40, the water-soluble substance 14 adhering to the outer periphery is gradually scattered, and the air C containing the main component of the water-soluble substance 14 is mixed in the admixture containing portion. 36 through tube 35 through air stone 34
Sent to. The air C and the water-soluble substance 14 that have reached the air stone 34 are finely foamed, and the oxygen contained in the air C is taken up by the fish 32. On the other hand, water A has a water-soluble substance of 14
Since the main component of the above, that is, tannin, is dissolved, the same action and effect as in the first embodiment are obtained, and the white turbidity of the water A is obtained even when the number of times of water replacement is small or when water replacement is neglected for a long time. Also, the generation of algae in the water tank 1 can be prevented as much as possible, the unsightly appearance can be eliminated, and the fresh odor of the water A is not released to the outside, which does not cause discomfort to the viewer. Further, by killing the floating microorganisms, it is possible to obtain a favorable environment for the fish 32 or the aquatic plants in the aquarium 1.

When a deodorant having a deodorant effect or an aromatic agent is contained in the admixture container 36 instead of the deodorant 13 containing tannin as a main component, the fresh odor of the water A is released to the outside. In addition, it does not cause discomfort to the viewer. In addition, when a sterilizing agent having a water quality improving effect for killing floating microorganisms is stored in the mixture storage section 36, the cloud of the water A and the water tank 1
The generation of algae in the interior can be prevented as much as possible, the unsightly appearance can be eliminated, and the viewer does not feel uncomfortable. Moreover, by killing the planktonic microorganisms, it is possible to obtain a favorable environment for the fish 32 or the aquatic plants in the aquarium 1.
