Why Should Aeration Be Increased in Summer?
Aeration must be strengthened in summer primarily due to the "high temperature, low dissolved oxygen, and high oxygen demand": Higher water temperature means less dissolved oxygen in the water At 30°C, dissolved oxygen levels are about 30% lower than at 20°C, yet koi metabolism and oxygen consumption increase by more...
Why Do Algal Blooms Cause a Nighttime Oxygen Crisis?
During the day, algae produce oxygen through photosynthesis. However, at night they switch to respiration, consuming large amounts of dissolved oxygen in the water. When algae overgrow (water turns dense green, clarity drops), their nighttime oxygen consumption can be 2–3 times that of koi, causing dissolved oxygen to fall to...
