BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bottom soil and a filter medium for an appreciation fish tank.

【0002】[0002]

【従来の技術】近年熱帯魚又は金魚等の鑑賞魚を家庭内

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, ornamental fish such as tropical fish and goldfish have been actively grown in homes.

【0003】しかして、鑑賞魚更にはこれと共存する水

草の状態によって、水槽内の水のpH値は変動し易い。
[0003] In order for the appreciation fish and the coexisting aquatic plants to survive properly, the water in the aquarium must have an appropriate pH.
, But the pH value of the water in the aquarium tends to fluctuate depending on the state of the appreciation fish or aquatic plants.

【0004】このような場合、水槽内の水が、本来要請

[0004] In such a case, when the water in the water tank is more acidic than the originally required state, the water in the water tank has an action of returning to alkali, and the water in the water tank is lower than the originally required state. In the case of being alkaline, it is extremely advantageous if there is a material having a pH buffering function of returning to an acidic side.

【0005】にも拘らず、従来においては、このような

[0005] Despite this, conventionally, bottom soil and filter media having such functions have not been sufficiently provided.

Focusing on the above-mentioned demands, the present invention is extremely inexpensive, and can be used in a water tank.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a bottom bed soil and a filter medium that perform an H buffer function.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the constitution of the present invention is to provide a granulated volcanic ash soil by sintering and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate in a weight ratio of 200 to 300: It consists of a bottom soil for an aquarium fish tank with a mixture mixed at a ratio of 1 and a filter medium, and a tank using these.

In general, volcanic ash soil contains sulfuric acid, and therefore has the function of lowering the pH of the water in the water tank. If it is more alkaline, it acts to restore it to normal.

On the other hand, a carbonate compound of an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal, on Wednesday, exhibits alkalinity due to marine salts of the alkali metal and the alkaline earth metal, thereby increasing the pH value of the water in the water tank. If the water inside is more acidic than originally required, it acts to restore it.

Of course, the appropriate pH value varies somewhat depending on the breeding appreciation fish and aquatic plants, etc. Therefore, the type of volcanic ash soil and alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate compound to be mixed and the mixing ratio are also different. Can be set as appropriate.
In the present application, the weight ratio between the volcanic ash soil and the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal is set to 200 to 300: 1,
While the degree of acidity of the volcanic ash soil is relatively weak, the degree of alkalinity of the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal oxidizing compound is strong. This is because it has been experimentally confirmed that this is convenient.

The reason why the volcanic ash soil is granulated by sintering is that the volcanic ash soil has a sufficient hardness and the sulfuric acid in the inside gradually becomes soluble in water.

Example 1 As a carbonate compound of an alkaline earth metal, calcium carbonate (Ca 2 CO 2 ) was mixed with volcanic ash soil granulated by low-temperature sintering at a weight ratio of about 1: 250, and the mixture was mixed. When used as bottom soil with a thickness of about 3 cm in an aquarium having a bottom of about 0.25 m 2 and containing 50 liters of water, a pH value of about 6 months was obtained. Showed a substantially constant value.

When two goldfishes and aquatic plants were bred and used as a filter medium, the pH value of the internal water showed a constant value for about 7 months.
