Can the bottom filter fish tank raise aquatic plants?

Yes, but it is recommended to use the filter bucket, which takes up less space and has high efficiency. The circulation system is more conducive to reflecting the effect and has powerful functions. Still recommended for beginners.

Conducive to the cultivation of nitrifying bacteria. Generally speaking, the bottom filter screen has 3 or 4 grids, and the order of filtering materials is: the first grid, white cotton, rattan cotton, and the second grid; Bacteria room, ceramic ring, glass ring, filter ball, etc. (You can choose one or both); In the third grid, if it is the last grid, you can put the pump and heating rod, if not, you can also put the bacteria room or medical stone; But in the end, you need to leave a space for the pump and heating rod.

Disadvantages of the bottom filter: the huge volume generally takes up the space of the bottom cabinet of the fish tank, and the requirements for the water pump are relatively high, and the power consumption is relatively large. The pump must be equipped with overflow, otherwise the water will fill Jinshan or the pump will dry up. So the technical level is slightly higher.
