[0021] Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the microbial filter box. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] The core of the present invention is to provide an ecological circulation filtering water turtle tank, which can keep the environment clean even if the tank is not cleaned for a long time, thereby achieving ecological balance in the water turtle tank.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of an ecological circulation filtration water turtle fish tank provided by a specific embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the microbial filter box.

[0025] In a specific embodiment, the ecological circulating filtration water turtle fish tank provided by the present invention mainly includes three parts, namely the turtle and shrimp symbiosis box 1, the plant filtration box 2 and the microbial filtration box 3, which are connected by a water pump to form a circulation system.

[0026] Specifically, the plant filter box 2 is provided with a first water pump 24, which can introduce the water in the turtle and shrimp symbiosis tank 1 into the plant filter box 2. After the filtration is completed in the plant filter box 2, the second water pump 31 introduces the circulating water into the microbial filter box 3, and then introduces the circulating water into the turtle and shrimp symbiosis tank 1 after the filtration is completed in the microbial filter box 3.

[0027] The turtle-shrimp symbiosis tank 1 is the main turtle breeding place; obviously, the turtles or tortoises referred to in this article are all general terms for common turtles suitable for home breeding, and are not specific to a certain species of turtle.

[0028] A substantially horizontal isolation net 11 is provided in the turtle-shrimp symbiosis tank 1. The isolation net 11 divides the interior of the tank 1 into an upper turtle area and a lower shrimp area. The net 11 has a gap that allows bait fish and shrimp to pass through but prevents turtles from passing through. Thus, bait shrimp can pass through the gap in the isolation net 11 to reach the upper turtle area to clean algae, while the turtle's feces can fall into the lower shrimp area, where the turtle cannot reach.

[0029] Obviously, the lower shrimp area is just a general name, and it cannot be concluded that only bait shrimps can be cultivated there. Other smaller organisms that are suitable as bait and have cleaning functions are also applicable.

[0030] A feeding port 15 is further provided near one side of the isolation net 11. The feeding port 15 has a significantly larger diameter so as to allow new bait shrimps to be fed into the lower shrimp area.

[0031] The lower shrimp area can also be equipped with a generally vertically arranged repelling net 12. The mesh of the repelling net 12 is obviously smaller, so the bait shrimp cannot easily pass through. The repelling net 12 can be moved from one side of the lower shrimp area to the other side, thereby concentrating the bait shrimp and other bait, and then entering a large number of them into the upper turtle area through the feeding port 15, so as to facilitate feeding. In addition, the repelling net 12 can also be used to conveniently clean food residues and turtle and shrimp feces.

[0032] A plurality of transversely extending tracks 13 may be provided at the top and bottom of the lower shrimp area, so that the driving net 12 can stably move transversely along the tracks 13 .

[0033] In order to further facilitate operation, the driving net 12 can also be installed with a magnet 14; by operating the external magnet, the magnet 14 can be driven to drive the driving net 12 to move horizontally, and the operation process is simple and convenient.

[0034] Furthermore, the bottom of the lower shrimp area near the feeding port 15 can be configured as a downwardly sloping slope 17 to facilitate collection. The bottom of the slope 17 can be connected to the first water pump 24 of the plant filter box 2 via a water pipe, and a suction net can be installed at the water inlet 18. This way, by pushing the repelling net 12, accumulated shrimp and tortoise feces, food residue, etc. at the bottom can be pushed to the vicinity of the water inlet 18, where they can be discharged by the suction force of the first water pump 24. An anti-suction net is placed at the water inlet 18 to prevent bait shrimp and other items from accidentally entering the first water pump 24.

[0035] The first water pump 24 may be provided at the bottom of the plant filter box 2 . The plant filter box 2 further includes a first porous material layer 21 and a root fixing material layer 22 , both of which are provided along the direction of water flow.

[0036] The first porous material layer 21 provides a preliminary accumulation and filtration of organic matter, such as feces. Water then flows upward through the bottom, passing through a separator mesh and reaching a layer 22 of root-fixing materials, such as pebbles. This layer 22 houses planting baskets for soilless cultivation, secured by pebbles and other root-fixing materials. These baskets can be used to grow ornamental plants, such as hanging baskets and water hyacinths, as well as edible crops like garlic and green vegetables.

[0037] The plant filter box 2 can absorb most of the inorganic salts in the water, reduce the probability of algae bloom in the water tank, and maintain stable water quality. The bottom of the plant filter box 2 has a first drain valve 23 that can be opened at regular intervals to discharge difficult-to-decompose waste at the bottom of the box.

[0038] A second water pump 31 is installed at the bottom of the microbial filter box 3 to pump water out of the bottom of the plant filter box 2. A second porous material layer 32 and a sponge layer 33 are sequentially arranged in the microbial filter box 3 along the water flow direction. Nitrifying bacteria can be cultured in the second porous material layer 32, which decomposes small amounts of organic matter in the water flow into inorganic salts.

[0039] The water flow continues to rise under the action of the second water pump 31 and is filtered through the sponge layer 33. After filtering out the indecomposable impurities, it returns to the turtle and shrimp symbiosis tank 1 through the return water pipe 35 provided at the top; the outlet of the return water pipe 35 can be connected to the top of the turtle and shrimp symbiosis tank 1.

[0040] A second sewage valve 34 may be provided at the bottom of the microbial filtration box 3 for discharging sewage that is difficult to decompose after a period of time.

[0041] The ecologically circulating filtered water turtle aquarium provided by the present invention includes a turtle-shrimp symbiosis tank, a plant filter tank, and a microbial filter tank. The plant filter tank is equipped with a first water pump to introduce water from the turtle-shrimp symbiosis tank for filtration, and the microbial filter tank is equipped with a second water pump to introduce water filtered by the plant filter tank into the turtle-shrimp symbiosis tank after filtration. This significantly shortens cleaning time and maintains healthy water quality over a long period of time, reducing the probability of eutrophication and algae blooms. Furthermore, a small ecological cycle is established, constructing a turtle-shrimp-filter paper ecological cycle, ensuring the vitality of pet turtles while also allowing the harvest of fresh vegetables and crops.

[0042] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

[0043] The above is a detailed introduction to the ecological circulation filtration water turtle fish tank provided by the present invention. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core idea. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principles of the present invention, the present invention can also be improved and modified in several ways, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
