aquarium filtration

Aquarium filtration is the process of cleaning the water in a fish tank to maintain a healthy environment for aquatic life. It typically involves three methods: mechanical filtration, which removes visible debris; chemical filtration, which uses substances like activated carbon to eliminate toxins; and biological filtration, where beneficial bacteria break down harmful waste products, such as fish waste and uneaten food. Together, these methods keep the water clear, prevent disease, and ensure fish thrive. Regular maintenance of the filtration system is essential for balanced water quality and the overall well-being of the aquarium inhabitants.
