නයිට්‍රජන් චක්‍රය (Nitrogen Cycle)

Aquarium එකක මාළු අපද්‍රව්‍ය සහ ඉතිරි ආහාර වලින් අම්මෝනියා (Ammonia) නිපදවෙයි. මෙය ඉතා විෂ සහිතයි.

ඉන්පසු හොඳ බැක්ටීරියා මගින් එය නයිට්‍රයිට් (Nitrite) බවට පත් කරයි (තවමත් විෂ සහිතයි).
තවත් බැක්ටීරියා මගින් එය නයිට්‍රේට් (Nitrate) බවට පත් කරයි (අඩු විෂ සහිතයි).

👉 නයිට්‍රේට් ඉවත් කරන්නේ ජලය මාරු කිරීම (Water changes) මගින්ය.

⚠️ වැදගත්:
නව ටැංකියට මාළු දාන්න කලින් චක්‍රය (cycle) සම්පූර්ණ විය යුතුයි
හොඳ filter එකක් තිබීම අත්‍යවශ්‍යයි
නිතර water changes කරන්න

🐠 මේ චක්‍රය නිවැරදිව තිබුණොත් මාළු සෞඛ්‍යවන්තව ජීවත් වේ
