수조 용량과 사육 타입에 따른 필요 여과기 유량(LPH/GPH)을 계산합니다. 수초항, 소형어, 대형어, 거북이 타입별 순환 횟수 적용.
Filter flow rate (GPH or LPH) is how much water the filter processes per hour. A general rule is 4-10 times the tank volume per hour. For example, a 50-gallon tank needs 200-500 GPH filtration.
Heavily stocked tanks need more filtration (8-10x tank volume/hour) because fish produce more waste. Lightly stocked tanks need less (4-6x). Planted tanks may need less filtration due to plant nutrient uptake.
This calculator uses standard guidelines for filter sizing. Actual needs depend on fish species, feeding amount, and tank maintenance. For precise sizing, consult an aquarium specialist.
Main types are mechanical (removes particles), biological (converts waste), and chemical (removes dissolved substances). Most filters combine all three. Choose based on your tank type and fish species.
Clean mechanical filter media every 1-2 weeks. Rinse in old tank water to preserve beneficial bacteria. Replace chemical media monthly. Never clean biological media with tap water. Follow manufacturer instructions.
