Is it better to use a waterwheel aerator or an impeller aerator in a fish pond?

Fish farming is a common agricultural production and a good project for rural areas to adjust the industrial structure and increase farmers' income. However, there is a big risk in the production process of this project, that is, the fish pond is prone to hypoxia. When the fish pond is hypoxic, it will affect the growth of fish in the pond at the least and may cause serious consequences such as "pond flooding" in the fish pond at the worst. After the fish pond is hypoxic, using an "aerator" to artificially oxygenate the fish pond is a relatively effective way to solve the hypoxia of the pond.

The impeller aerator, waterwheel aerator and water spray aerator mentioned by the questioner, in fact, as long as their power is the same, their oxygenation effect is actually similar. The principle of their oxygenation of the fish pond is to stir the water body, so that the contact area between the water body and the air is increased, so that the oxygen in the air can be more and more effectively dissolved into the water body, and the toxic and harmful gases in the water body can be effectively volatilized, thereby solving the hypoxia of fish in the water body.

In fact, these common aerators all have certain defects, such as they are not suitable for fish ponds with too large an area and too deep water levels; when the fish pond is seriously lacking in oxygen, the aerator is turned on, and the effect of aeration is not obvious; it is easy to have leakage accidents, etc. So what kind of aeration equipment is better when the fish pond is lacking in oxygen?

Of course, no matter how good the artificial aeration facilities or aeration methods are, they are not as good as keeping the water in the fish pond good and keeping the water quality of the fish body high-quality, that is, what we often say is to keep the water body fat, alive, tender, and refreshing. This will not only give the fish in the fish pond more abundant natural bait but also make it less likely for the fish pond to be lacking in oxygen. In order to keep the water in the pond good, it is necessary to maintain or control the fertility of the water body by fertilizing or planting aquatic plants. And by adding new water, replacing old water; or applying chemical agents, biological regulators, etc.

In addition, to prevent the fish pond from hypoxia, the more important thing is to have a reasonable stocking density and a reasonable variety combination, especially the proportion of filter-feeding fish (silver carp and bighead carp). In short, to solve the problem of hypoxia in the pond, the three types of aerators mentioned by the questioner have similar oxygenation effects under the same power. Therefore, I personally think that to solve the problem of hypoxia in the pond, you can consider using Qiantang aerator manufacturers and maintaining good pond water quality.
